Vision and Mission
At Saint Barnabas, our vision is to connect people with God—the boundless Presence from Whom all things have come. We want all to awaken to the life-affirming wellness, peace, benevolence, and goodness of connecting with Jesus. We understand this to be our mission.
Nothing could be more down to earth or more humbling than this boundless Presence, which just is. It doesn’t have to prove itself. It doesn’t have to acquire anything. It just is.
-Thomas Keating
Values
From elegant worship and faith formation that “dives deeper” to our dozen mission partnerships around the world, our inspiring and diverse way of life is where the love of Jesus is passed from person to person. We like to say: “Churches have programs; people have friends,” and learning, serving, loving, and caring for one another is at the core of our values here. Growing in our relationship with God, growing together in our Christian community, and responding to God’s boundless Love by sharing our faith and serving others are the core of what it means to be at Saint Barnabas. We have a wide variety of ministries to meet the needs of our parish and our community—adults, children, and families alike.

Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.
Matthew 10:39
This is a community where you will meet Jesus, enter a life of dynamic spirituality, experience transformation, and lose your life to find your life.
