Our Story
On February 19, 2001, something miraculous emerged here in beautiful southwest Florida. Ninety-eight of us met with Rev. Dr. Wayne Robinson to consider the possibility of forming a new congregation. Today, more than twenty years later, twenty-five of the founding members are still alive and members of All Faiths.
Our first service was held the Sunday after the 9-11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. We had publicized that we were creating an interfaith religious group and others came and joined. Those were challenging times in America. In a time of heightened paranoia and Islamophobia, we offered an alternative of love, trust and inclusiveness. We recognized that we had a unique opportunity to create something that is much needed– a congregation of inclusive and loving people, who would devote themselves to supporting each other, and making this a better world.
​
Our identity and principles are defined by the values of: Justice · Equity · Compassion.
