Broadway United Methodist Church

The church is the means by which disciples of Jesus Christ live out their faith. Also known as the Body of Christ and Bride of Christ, it is a community of people called to live in fellowship and worship together. We believe that we were created to live deeply with one another, to carry each other's burdens and to live generously, to pray for and c... onfess our sins to each other, to suffer and to celebrate together. It's in these sacred relationships and honest, loving communities that God transforms us. We believe the way of Jesus cannot be lived alone. We believe in the priesthood of all believers: Everyone in relationship with Christ is gifted, empowered and called to serve within God's mission to reach the world. The Church is God's vehicle on earth to bring about God's justice and mercy for all people. As each one of us discovers our own spiritual gifts, hears and answers God's call, we strive to reach the point in which all of life is for God and His Kingdom. We believe this Christ-centered life within a community of faith is the best way to live. We believe the church is called to impact its community and world through acts of service, community partnerships, witness to Christ in word and deed, and ultimately by embodying the love of God in ways that transform broken people and systems. We believe the local church is the hope of the world. This statement of faith is intended as a GUIDE for individuals to reflect on their own faith and beliefs and how they live out that faith. This statement is in keeping with the Christian faith in the Methodist tradition. Broadway United Methodist ChurchRead More
