United Methodists are . . .

People whose actions bring new meaning to their faith. 

United Methodists have a story to share with the world. As the familiar song "We've a Story to Tell to the Nations" says, ours is "a story of truth and mercy, a story of peace and light." Its the gospel story.

... A Covenant People

When you join a United Methodist congregation, you become a member of the total United Methodist connection. The "Book of Discipline" states that, as a member, you promise God and the congregation to uphold the church by your prayers, your presence, your gifts and your service.

... A Diverse Community

United Methodism was formed when the Methodist Church and the Evangelical United Brethren Church merged in 1968. United Methodists trace their spiritual heritage back to 18th-century leaders including John and Charles Wesley, Francis Asbury, Philip Otterbein, Martin Boehm and Jacob Albright.

All persons are welcome in The United Methodist Church. We are firmly committed to inclusiveness. We celebrate a diversity of people, ideas and cultures and are enriched by our broad history.

… Biblical in Faith

United Methodists trust free inquiry in matters of Christian doctrine. Scripture, tradition, experience and reason guide our faith. Of paramount importance is Scripture. For United Methodists, the Bible is the record of God's people living out God's promise.

Sharing God's Love
 
 

 

WE are a caring community where friends worship together, love and support each other, and where all are welcome.

WE meet the challenges of the Spirit through worship, education, music and fellowship for all. As a Christian community, we offer the opportunity to question, search the Scriptures, and commit to a faith journey through God's love.

WE share the love of Christ, as it has been shared with us, in the church, in the community, and in the world.
