“ Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you ever can. ”   ...John Wesley

WE BELIEVE:
 
Ø God is one God in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 
Ø 
The writings in the Old Testament and New Testament of the Holy Bible are the inspired word of God. 
Ø 
We recognize two sacraments: Baptism and Holy Communion. The Church generally practices infant baptism and recognizes baptisms from other denominations, and also practices open communion, also known as The Lord's Supper, by the giving of bread and drinking of wine.
Ø The United Methodist Church
includes and welcomes people of all races, cultures, and ages.
Ø God gives His love freely to all people.  By God’s grace we are saved through  His son, Jesus Christ, our Savior, who took all of our sins, (past, present, and future), died on the Cross, and was resurrected on the third day.
 

Matthew 28:18-20
18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
