The mission of the church will be reflected in all areas of church life: “Serving God and neighbor, shining God’s lightly welcoming all people, and building community”.

The purpose of this congregation will be the proclamation of the gospel through its life and work, testifying to the grace of God found in Jesus Christ. This congregation will work cooperatively with Christian Churches (Disciples of Christ), ecumenical and interfaith partners in carrying out the mission of the church of service to God and neighbor.

It will be distinctive of Eastwood’s practice that we welcome all of God’s children in Christian love, celebrate open communion by invitation from Jesus Christ, embrace the idea of an open and affirming congregation, work to be a pro-reconciling/antiracist congregation, celebrate vital and creative ministries, take up meaningful social justice reforms, and at all times encourage spiritual growth of adults and children.
