Mathews United Methodist Church !
Everything we do
and everything we are at Mathews United
Methodist Church is a celebration of the
grace of God that we have discovered through
Jesus the Christ.
We believe that
God desires every person everywhere hear the
good news of the saving grace of God through
Jesus. As the community of believers
at Mathews UMC we seek to fill a our role in
God’s plan to reach our community and the
world for Christ.
We strive to use
the spiritual disciplines taught in the
Scriptures – the study of Holy Scripture,
prayer and fasting, giving of our tithes and
ourselves, and worshiping together as a
Family of God on a regular basis – to grow
individually and collectively into the image
of God we find in the life and ministry of
Jesus. We have found that the earnest
pursuit of these spiritual disciplines draws
us closer to God and to each other.
We are taught
through our study of the scriptures that we
are to have an “incarnational” faith –
allowing God to be present in and through
us. We understand that as we allow God
to live through us, we will be growing in
Christ-likeness by reaching out to minister
to, accept, love and include the outcast,
the marginalized, and the down-and-out of
society, as well as each other.
The community of
believers at Mathews United Methodist Church
is in essence a family. We know that
it is vital for any family to spend quality
time together, celebrating each other’s
successes and supporting one another during
the difficult times. That “together
time” can be found through the many worship
and fellowship opportunities offered at
Mathews UMC. We invite you to stop by
and “check us out” at your earliest
convenience! We welcome anyone of any
description without prejudice – you should
see some of us! We might just be the
community of believers for you at this time
in your spiritual journey.
