At Tippe, we believe in a spacious Christianity through which GRACE cultivates hope, healing, and purpose! Here faith continues to open up…to move away from cut and dry, right and wrong, good and bad. Tippe is a safe space, a brave place! An open and affirming community where everyone belongs! And, we're all accountable...in a life giving sense!
A community of communities where all are able to grow, ask questions, have doubts, and walk with others. Here, you will experience the palpable support of a community of believers, doubters, thinkers, doers, and pray-ers who together are changing lives and our greater community in visible ways! Please let us know if there are ways we can be supportive!

What is a Green Luminary® Award?
It takes vision and foresight to sustainably manage water where it falls. A Green Luminary is ultimately helping protect our rivers and Lake Michigan by adopting practices that harvest rainfall for other uses or mimic nature by draining it into the ground to reduce water pollution. The Green Luminary projects are led by true champions who recognize not only the need to manage storm water but also the need to exceptional green infrastructure design projects in the MMSD service area that benefit our lakes and rivers, as well as our communities. |
