“How do we live out our common life as a God-centered, love-motivated community of faith? How will we express our particular faith in prayers and worship that include all people? How will we live our unity in authentic ways, fully recognizing the divisions and separations that continue to exist among us? My own growing awareness is that spiritual needs and desires are present and common to all, that we share a universal quest for deeper meaning and purpose, and that we are all beloved children of God.”
