Here are some of the things
that make us distinctive:
Nativity is . . .
1. . .
. a friendly, vibrant church
that shares its strength
with our community and
beyond.
2. . . . a non-creedal
church. This means that we
don't try to enforce a faith
litmus test. We realize that
Christianity has many
different expressions and
that we can learn from what
others have done.
3. . . . strengthened by a
diverse membership whose
spiritual beliefs
and practices challenge us
to see things in more than
one way. Our people
are not monochromatic.
4. . . . a successful faith
community combining the best
of the old traditions
with newer worship elements.
5. . . . a church that
values diverse music genres,
from the solemnity
of old hymns to contemporary
praise and worship choruses.
6. . . . rediscovering that
there is no substitute for
an individual Christian to
cultivate a deep personal
spirituality.
7. . . . a group of
dedicated persons who
realize that the status
quo is never a place to
settle; faith grows and is
nourished by open hearts and
open minds.
8. . . . committed to a
broad sense of missions
involving the
volunteering of members’
time, talent and treasure in
local,
regional and international
causes.
