"Acceptance of One another and encouragement to spiritual growth" (3rd principle)

 One of the least true statements I hear about FPC is that we are "a like-minded group of people." Although we share many values we do not all believe alike, act alike, live alike or love alike. There is beauty in our diversity but sometimes we forget that the person next to us is different  from us. Perhaps different in what they believe or how they live or in their sexual orientation or gender identification. The challenge of our third principle is to accept and respect people as they and support people on their individual journey. The Rev. Tom Rosiello will lead worship and preach the sermon. One of the least true statements I hear about FPC is that we are "a like-minded group of people."
