What We Believe

The congregation of People’s United Methodist Church shares with other Christians the conviction that Scripture is the primary source and criterion for Christian doctrine. We are convinced that Jesus Christ is the living Word of God in our midst, in whom we trust in life and death. We believe that Scripture is primary and balanced with tradition, experience and reason. We believe in the Holy Spirit, through whom we acknowledge God’s gifts.


Our Mission

To reach out to people in the name of Jesus Christ. To relate people to God. To nurture and strengthen them in their journey of discipleship. To send them into the world to be the church. To invite and receive others in the name of Jesus Christ.


Our Vision

Glorifying God, transformed by the Holy Spirit, united in Christian community, we will respond to God’s call to proclaim Christ boldly to the world and to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
