A PROGRESSIVE, GENTLY CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY - OPEN TO ALL FAITHS - Sunday service begins at 10:30 - everyone is welcome
Northbrae has in-person services. Regardless of vaccinated status, please wear a mask. Services are also streamed live on YouTube - YouTube Channel Welcome to Northbrae Community Church! We are happy you found us. We are a lively and progressive non-denomination congregation located at the top of Solano Avenue on The Alameda. Our identity and purpose are rooted in the progressive Christian tradition that leads us to reflect upon the life and teaching of Jesus. At the same time, we are committed to the interfaith tradition that has been a growing part of our history. For many decades our explorations have been inspired by the respectful study of world and indigenous religions. We welcome people of any religious tradition, mystical path, or secular spirituality to join with us in worship and service to others. We value community over creed and discovery over dogma. We strive to nurture spirituality in a contemporary setting, and to provide a place where people can find meaning, experience enjoyment, and feel support in navigating life's many and varied challenges. Northbrae gratefully welcomes all who enter our doors which are open to persons of all races, physical condition, creeds, gender identity, sexual identity, class and who wish an active and transformative faith.

PROGRESSIVE CHRISTIANITY
Northbrae is a member of Progressive Christianity, a non-profit organization that supports each person’s search for meaning rather than any exclusive dogma that limits the search for truth and free inquiry. We encourage work that eases the suffering and degradation inherent in many of the structures of society; promote compassionate care for each other and acceptance of all people; and respect other world religious traditions. We affirm the use of sound scholarship and critical inquiry to understand the presence of God in human life.
