We are an Open and Affirming congregation, rooted in Jesus’ great commandment to love our neighbors as we do ourselves. We welcome all into the full life and ministry of our church, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, marital status, physical ability, mental ability, economic status, or faith background.

The Affirming LGBTQ+ Group meets to advocate and embody a sense of belonging and welcome and that “all means all.” They are in charge of planning our annual participation in Albany Pride as well as our Open and Affirming status anniversary celebrations. This group is always welcoming new members, so please contact the office if you would like more information.
