There is one triune God

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

Created by God, we are forgiven of our sins through faith in Jesus the Christ, and equipped with the Holy Spirit to serve God and build God's kingdom upon the earth. 

Our Foundation

Our Christian Roots

United Methodists are Christians who share in the Protestant faith rooted in the scriptures of The Holy Bible. The United Methodist Church shares basic affirmations in common with all Christian communities.


Our Wesleyan Heritage

The Methodist movement was founded in England by the priest and theologian John Wesley and his brother, composer, Charles Wesley. We emphasize Christian living and putting faith and love into action with a keen focus on God's love and grace. 


Reflecting on our Faith

Faith is the basic orientation and commitment of our whole being - a matter of heart and soul.
