The Mission Statement

of Faith...

We of Faith United Methodist Church are children of God and claim our Methodist roots with joy and thanksgiving.

 

We are called to love God and love and our neighbor, recognizing that our neighbors are all who touch us an all whom we touch. We acknowledge our interdependence with God, one another, and God's entire creation.We are called to be faithful witnesses to Jesus Christ and to respond to the world through Christ. We are called to represent Christ and to live according to the gospel in all areas of our lives.                                                                                 

Our mission is fourfold:

 

First, to reach out to all whom we touch - paying attention to them, accepting them as they are and receiving them with love.

Second, to celebrate our Christian heritage - with all who come, offering opportunities to grow closer to God through worship, prayer, study, and honest sharing.

Third, to facilitate an acceptable way of life - to all who seek it, strengthening people for ministry with others, nurturing one another in faith, learning the skills of Christian discipleship and how to follow Jesus in worldly service.

Fourth, to identify need, injustice, and evil and respond with Christian love and compassion - our mission is to send people out and support them as they help make our community more loving and just, joining with God's ongoing work of transforming our community and our world.
