Yup. Apparently they are even formally recognized as a church and as such have tax exempt status with the IRS.

Interestingly, their creed is apparently adopted from the Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi, while the remainder of their tenets seem to be adopted from various sources, including Buddhist teachers such as Thich Naht Hahn, Christian writer C.S. Lewis, and New Age teachers such as Eckhart Tolle and Deepak Chopra.
