Faith: We value truth and the trustworthiness of human intentions, thoughts, actions and behaviors guided by a holy, divine spirit; recognizing that how this is manifested finds expression in diverse and positive ways.

Prayer: We value the power of prayer as communion with God and as a way to seek divine guidance for all that we undertake. We believe in shared prayer among people of various faith traditions, where no one is excluded because of form or doctrine, but where all are included in the privilege of divine communication. We also affirm our multi faith nature and our respect for and trust in each other as we pray according to our own conscience.

Equity: We value the moral and ethical claim of all persons to spiritual, legal, social and economic equality and fairness and we hold a personal commitment to advocate this claim, promote religious liberty and honor the religious conscience of all people.

Inclusion: We value the right of all people, regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, abilities, disabilities, or other human characteristics, to be respected and appreciated as contributing members of the community. We encourage the involvement of people of all backgrounds in AFN who can affirm the mission and core values of AFN.

Interreligious Efforts: We value dialogue and collaboration with the followers of world religions, carried out with prudence and love and in witness to our own individual faith and life, and we recognize, preserve and promote positive efforts, spiritual and moral, as well as the sociocultural values found among people of various faiths.

Justice: We value every human being as being of equal worth and we place a priority on taking courses of action that address, confront and help correct conditions of human and environmental injustice and oppression.

Honest Dialogue: We value a form of communications where every person is able to honestly express their full range of feelings and thoughts in a straight forward, objective manner without fear of retaliation, with full authenticity and with sensitivity toward possible offense. We agree to listen to/hear each other, exchange ideas and seek to arrive at consensus.

Human Dignity: We value the basic right of every human being to have respect and to have their basic needs met in a way that will allow them the opportunity to develop their full potential.

Love: We practice the virtue of unconditional love in relationships, as we value and seek to express ourselves among one another in a way that exhibits the characteristics of genuine love: patience, kindness, humility, forbearance, belief, hope and endurance. Through these characteristics, we extend our hands and hearts for the betterment of all people.
