Our Attestation

Little Flowers Community seeks to follow the way of Jesus together, to participate in His work of liberation. To that end, we are committed to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God”. The justice of Jesus, like his salvation/liberation, is restorative, and therefore we are committed to working towards reconciliation. Through our imperfect intentions and actions, we seek to resist that which would divide us, rally to that which unites us, and recognize that no person is our enemy and all people are our family through Christ.

We live and worship on Treaty 1 Land, the traditional lands of the Dakota, Cree, Ojibway & Metis nations. We acknowledge that these are Treaty lands, forged through sacred promises between the First peoples and settler peoples. We acknowledge and repent of our willful & ignorant abuse and neglect of those promises. We are committed to honouring the First Nations of this land.

We acknowledge the diversity of the human experience, celebrating the many unique expressions as reflective of God in Whose image we are created. We reflect God’s image more authentically as we bring this diversity together in loving unity as part of the Body of Christ. To that end, we endeavour to be a fully inclusive and affirming congregation– attentive to a diversity that includes but is not limited to sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, economic or social circumstances, racial and cultural background, marital status, physical ability, intellectual capacity, and age- welcoming all to full participation in every aspect life, faith, & service to the church and Jesus. We acknowledge our failure to do this in the past and the ongoing work of doing it better.

Little Flowers Community is a peace church, committed to non-violence and non-violent resistance. As we discern together as a community, we are committed to honouring the freedom of every member to discern faithfulness as the Spirit leads. No one will be coerced to affirm anything contrary to their conscience. We only ask that we treat one another with grace, humility, dignity, and love.
