UNITED METHODISTS speak many languages and live in many countries with many different cultures, ethnic traditions, national histories and understandings of Christian faith and practice.
Our MISSION is: to bring people to faith in Jesus Christ by:
- Inviting others to experience God’s love.
- Growing as disciples of Jesus Christ.
- Reaching out in love and service to others.
Our VISION is: With the Spirit of Jesus in us, we will become a community of joyful servants by receiving and radiating grace and faith.
- WE ARE people dedicated to a life of participation, personal responsibility, generosity, sacrifice, and self-restraint, responding to the call of Jesus Christ.
- WE ARE a covenant community, concerned about God's children everywhere. In life's clouds of doubt and division, we seek the sunlight of God's purpose bringing healing, harmony and hope.
- WE LOVE worship, study of God's Word, music, potluck dinners and a sense of community, a sense of belonging.
- WE WELCOME people of faith into our churches, and especially people who are searching for life's answers to tough questions, because we know what it's like to feel alone, unsure...to need a welcoming place with open hearts, open minds, open doors.
- WE ROLL up our sleeves and say, "Let's get to work," as we answer the call of making disciples for Jesus Christ.
- WE ROLL up our sleeves and say, “How can we help,” as we answer the call to reach out in love and service to others.
- WE BELIEVE that faith is built on a foundation of prayer and that God wants us to have a personal relationship with Him.
- WE LIVE the promise we made the day we joined The United Methodist Church...the promise of our prayers and our presence, our gifts and our service
