Our Beliefs:

Our congregation is one of over 30,000 local churches of United Methodism in the world.

​

We hold to the basic teachings of Christianity, and consider ourselves part of the whole church of Jesus Christ, made up of many denominations.

​

Our beliefs are based on the teachings of the Holy Scriptures; our denomination's founder, John Wesley, gave emphasis to certain Christian truths:

• Everyone can know God's love through Christ and be changed. This is God's amazing grace.

​

• This grace fills us with an assurance that we are God's beloved children, and gives us courage to live our lives with strength, integrity, love and compassion.

​

• God wants us, both as individuals and as communities, to be better than we are. So we are active in applying God's truth to our own lives, and to the larger communities of which we are a part.

​

• While we are bound together by these truths, we celebrate a wide diversity in opinions about many matters. John Wesley said that Methodists are not defined by their opinions, but by how much they love God and shed God's love abroad in the world.
