First and foremost, everyone will be and is welcome, loved, and accepted because God is love.  Our church has decided to uphold the original hope and spirit of the Methodist movement: we teach the basics of the Christian faith and strive toward greater holiness in Christ and grace together and, beyond that, we do not expect nor require universal theological agreement.  Our spiritual journey with Christ is most important to us.  Everyone is on a journey.  Therefore, again, all are welcome, loved, and accepted in God’s grace no matter theological, sexual, racial, gender, or ethnic orientation or background.
