What we believe:

United Methodists share a common heritage with all Christians. According to our foundational statement of beliefs in The Book of Discipline, we share the following basic affirmations in common with all Christian communities:

We believe in –

  • God, who is one, is revealed in three distinct persons.
  • We believe in the mystery of salvation through Jesus Christ. God became human in Jesus of Nazareth; and his life, death and resurrection demonstrates God’s redeeming love.
  • The Holy Spirit is God’s present activity in our midst. When we sense God’s leading, God’s challenge, or God’s support or comfort, it’s the Holy Spirit at work.
  • Genesis 1:27 asserts that we’ve been made in the image of the Creator. Like God we have the capacity to love and care, to communicate, and to create.
  • The church is the body of Christ, an extension of Christ’s life and ministry in the world today.
  • We believe that the Bible is God’s Word and is the primary authority for our faith and practice.
  • The kingdom or reign of God is both a present reality and future hope.
