Captivated by God's vision of Shalom (peace), we renounce violence, speak the truth in love, and seek to do the hard work of forgiveness.

We are a community that practices mutual care, and we help each other see the way God's spirit shapes our spirit through life's joys and lament.

As recipients of God's extravagance we are joyful stewards of the Gospel, the environment, our time, our talents, money, our health and our relationships.

Hospitality and Mission
Having been welcomed into God's community, we proclaim God's love and grace. We joyfully invite friends and neighbors near and far to join God's banquet.

We eagerly embrace learning about God's creation through a wide variety of experiences from sermons to service.

God has given each oneof us unique gifts and abilities. We encourage each person to share these gifts for ministry and service here at Salford and beyond

Overwhelmed by God's Holy love, we join in regular renewing worship, through words and music, joy and lament, silence and awe.

We believe in the power of prayer, and that God hears our prayers and answers; at times in powerful ways, and at times in ways that we do not understand.

We consistently turn to scripture as our foundational story, and through scripture we enter the conversation of who God is and what God is up to.

In our Thanksgiving Eve service, Anya Williamson, a young adult from the congregation will speak about her experience the last year in Brazil. From the fall of 2009 to the summer of 2010, Anya participated in a program of the Mennonite Central Committee called, Serving and Learning Together (SALT) as a volunteer building small biodigesters to assist Brazilian families in developing green energy resources. Anya is no stranger to new cultures and languages. She spent part of her growing up years living in Nepal where her parents now serve. In the spirit of gratitude, Anya will speak and show pictures from her time in Brazil.
