To say that we are a United Methodist
congregation, means that we are:
EPISCOPAL
Our Annual Conference (which is
a collection of hundreds of churches in the
Eastern and South-Central are of Pennsylvania)
is overseen by a bishop who appoints pastors to
congregations, and along with a cabinet of
District Superintendents, guides the work of all
the congregations in our area.
CONNECTIONAL
Our congregation partners with
other United Methodist congregations, national
boards, and mission organizations in our
district, conference, jurisdiction, and in other
conferences and Methodist denominations around
the world.
MISSIONAL
Through our connectional
partnerships, we support mission work in almost
every other country around the world, reaching
out to people of almost every tongue and people
group.
WESLEYAN
Our heritage flows from the
lives and ministries of John and Charles Wesley,
who were Anglican priests in the 18th Century in
England. Their understanding of what it
means to be a Christian flows through our
ministries, structures, and our way of being the
people of God in our community.
A PEOPLE OF OPEN HEARTS,
OPEN MINDS, AND OPEN DOORS
We invite one and all to join us
on the journey toward seeking, serving, and
sharing God through worship, spiritual
growth, fellowship, and mission involvement.
Our goal is to introduce each and
every person to (in the words of a traditional
hymn) the "Amazing Grace" of God, so that one
day "All the Earth Will Sing His Praises" (to
quote a contemporary worship song).
WE THEREFORE INVITE YOU TO JOIN US ON THIS
JOURNEY, BECOMING A CHRISTIAN OF 'METHODIST
FLAVOR!'
