May this church stand as an open door of Liberality and Truth. May bigotry and fanaticism never escape from the lips of its minister. May it always be an open door to the downtrodden and the broken and the bruised and the bleeding. …[M]ay it be a place in the life of this city where people feel that they can come and think for themselves in matters of religious philosophy;  may this church be a great source of inspiration in this city for the cause of Truth and Justice.
