What We Believe

Pastor's Corner

The United Methodist Church affirms that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and the Lord of all. We believe God reaches out with mercy and forgiveness to those who repent of their sinfulness. Hearts can be changed under the prompting of grace and the guidance of the Holy Sprit.

We believe that the core of the Christian faith was revealed in Scripture, illumined by tradition, made vivid in personal experience, and con-firmed by reason.

The mission of the Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ by proclaiming the good news of God’s grace. We continue the mission of seeking, welcoming and gathering persons into the community of the body of Christ.

The United Methodist Church has a long history of concern for social justice. We send persons into the world to live lovingly and justly as servants of Christ by healing the sick, feeding the hungry, caring for the stranger, freeing the oppressed, and working to develop social structures that are consistent with the gospel.

 

JUNE 2025

Dear Members and Friends
 

Are you growing in Christ? 

Have you learned all you need to know about the Christian journey? 

 

2 Peter 3:19 encourages us to “grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.

 

”How do you know if you are growing spiritually without assessing your spiritual life?   An unexamined spiritual life allows unattended wounds to fester and affect our faith.

 

As we enter the 6th month of this year, I encourage you to do a spiritual checkup. That’s right, a spiritual check-up! Just like we have annual physical exams, we can also take the time annually or more frequently to examine our spiritual lives, assess where we are, and determine if we need to change to foster more profound spiritual growth.

 

Here are a few questions to consider:

● Do I have a growing desire to spend more time with God?● Am I spending appropriate time praying, reading, and meditating on the Word?

● Am I loving my family and being a witness in my        community? 

● Do I love my neighbor the way Christ instructed?

● How do I spend my time, and does it impact my church?

 

Take the time to consider who you are and who God is calling you to be. Do you need to make changes in your spiritual life? Now is the perfect time to do it!
