No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here.

We teach the scriptures

seriously but not literally.  
We are a pro-gay, pro-woman, 
pro-poor, pro-immigrant community based

in extravagant

hospitality.

WORSHIP WITH US

We have one service at 10 a.m. each Sunday, which lasts about an hour. Sermons are interactive and meaningful. Music is selected from upbeat classics, praise hymns and performances from members. Services are followed by the sharing of fellowship, food and laughter.

We have roots deep in the Topeka community.  From its earliest beginnings, this church has been about working to fulfill the needs of our neighbors. We are an Open & Affirming, Inclusive, Progressive church in the heart of our city.

We share our faith

in the community by

participating in a number of organizations that help us

connect with other people

of faith beyond the walls

of our church.

Our first pastor was the Rev. Charles Sheldon, a pioneer in the social gospel movement and author of the international bestseller "In His Steps." Rev. Sheldon gave birth to the profound question "What Would Jesus Do?" Read more about his powerful message.

We affirm Christ's call to love God with all that we are and love our neighbors as ourselves, to invite, receive and value all people regardless of gender, race, age, culture, ethnic background, sexual orientation, gender identity, economic circumstance, family configuration or difference in ability.
