Mission Statement:

Our mission to promote non-violent self, spiritual and social transformation. We unite to provide an environment which stimulates a free exchange and exploration of ideas which fosters spiritual and intellectual growth. We also promote an environment where all are safe and free to search for spiritual meaning in their own ways. We recognize that truth is found in many forms of diversity. Through active and personal involvement we advocate for social justice in our local communities., our nation and the world.

The Enlightment Center promises to affirm & promote:

• the inherent worth and dignity of every person
• social justice, equality and compassion in human relations
• a free and responsible search for truth and meaning
• the goal of a world community with peace, liberty and justice for all

The tradition we share draws from many sources:

• direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, acknowledged in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit and an openness to the forces which create and uphold life.
  
  
• words and deeds of prophetic men and women which challenge us to confront powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion and the transforming power of Love.
  
  
• wisdom from all the world's religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life and call us to respond to God's love by loving our neighbors as ourselves.
  
  
• human teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the result of science and warn us against idolatries of mind and spirit.
  
  
• spiritual teachings of earth-centered traditions which celebrate the sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with nature.
