We believe that the Church exists to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
The process by which we do this work has a four-fold shape:
- Welcoming: We reach out to people and welcome them into the church.
- Worshiping: We relate people to God and help them deepen their relationship with God.
- Nurturing: We nurture people in Christian living.
- Sending: We support people in their ministry.
The people of the United Methodist Church in Western Pennsylvania are committed to engaging in ministry with the poor, stamping out killer diseases by improving health globally, developing principled Christian leaders for the Church and the world, dismantling racism, and involving more and more people in this important work.
