Be part of our community
We strive to be a family of like-minded individuals, desiring peace, happiness, and unity. Our outlook is joyful and hopeful, seeking unity in the family, in society, throughout our nation, and the world.
In our teaching, we consider the family the “School of love”. As we grow from being children to adults, we are should naturally learn how to be a wholesome and complete human being from our relationships in our family. Our first experience of the love of God was meant to come from our parents, the sacrificial love that parents have for their children. We learn to relate to all kinds of people by being in loving relationships with our siblings, parents and grandparents, and it is through this nurturing environment that we learn to care for others.
The family is, according to God’s original design, the source of joy and life for all human beings. It is the starting point from which we create healthy individuals and healthy societies, ultimately creating a healthy and peaceful world.

Assistant pastor, Justin Okamoto, has prepared a podcast and taken the time to interview a number of our local members. Click the below to go to the podcast page.
“I hope that through listening to each other’s testimony we can create a community of True Love. In order to love one another, I believe we need to know one another. I found in my own life that in order to experience love I need to show people the real me in all my flaws and imperfections. As you listen to these testimonies I pray that you can listen with God’s heart in mind, realizing how precious each person is.”
