our beliefs
We hold to the historic Christian faith as found in the Bible and passed down by the Church. We worship One God in Three Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that God lovingly created the world and gifts us with life. We believe that while we struggle to love God and each other God comes towards us with grace and invites us to be healed. Through the life of Jesus, God shows us the way to live at peace with God and community. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus, God claims victory over and frees us from the power of sin and death. By grace, we are forgiven of sin and baptized into the new life Christ offers—a life of love, justice, and mercy. As United Methodists, we emphasize the marvelous grace of God, the pursuit of holy living, and the joy of the Christian life.
