The mission of Church of Free Souls is to support, encourage, and facilitate non-denominational religious, spiritual, worshipful, social, cultural, artistic, community, and recreational gatherings that are open to all people of all beliefs, while fostering inclusivity and connection across difference within our world and also preserving, respecting, and sharing the historic sacred site that is our place of worship, our spiritual home.

Our Spiritual Home

For centuries, this site has been important to the people who lived in this area. It has been a gathering place, a place for celebration, a place to remember ancestors, a place of prayer and meditation. Church of Free Souls respects this site’s spiritual past and it has chosen its name in homage to these first peoples and their usage of this site.
