As a reconciling congregation, we are part of a nationwide network of churches who believe that all of God’s people are of sacred worth. We recognize the great diversity of people to be not only part of God’s plan but one of God’s greatest gifts as well. You can learn more about the Reconciling Ministries Network at rmnetwork.org
We believe that part of our mission as reconciling Christians is to raise awareness of the issues surrounding diversity and to work for social justice. We believe that in so doing, we more fully embody the United Methodist Church’s mission to open our hearts, open our minds, and open our doors to all people.
Statement of Diversity
All persons are of sacred worth. As brothers and sisters in Christ we covenant to follow his example of unconditional love, compassion, and justice in our mission and ministry.
Therefore, we continue to welcome and nurture the full participation of people of every age, cultural heritage and ethnic origin, sexual orientation, economic status, faith background, family structure, gender, gender identity, marital status, race, social standing, and varying capability.
Our church is a *reconciling intergenerational Christian community that intentionally welcomes all of God’s children. Its mission is to embody Christ’s love through a commitment to serve God by fulfilling the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of our congregation and of our local and global communities. We are part of the Many Waters District of the New England Conference of the United Methodist Church. (https://neumc.org)
