Biblical Foundations

St Paul’s United Methodist Church is rooted in the belief that the Bible, comprising the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired and authoritative Word of God. We firmly hold that it is the guidebook for spiritual growth, understanding, and living a meaningful life in accordance with God's plan.

God's Love and Redemption

At St Paul’s United Methodist Church, we celebrate and embrace God's boundless love for all people. We believe that through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, everyone can experience forgiveness, salvation, and eternal life. We strive to embody Christ's love and share the message of redemption with our members and the community.

The Holy Trinity

We affirm the Christian doctrine of the Holy Trinity, which teaches that God eternally exists as three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. They are equal in power, authority, and divine nature, while being one God.

Sin and Salvation

Recognizing the fallen nature of humanity, we believe that all have sinned and fall short of God's glory. However, through faith in Jesus Christ, we can receive forgiveness and eternal life. We believe that salvation is a gift from God and cannot be earned through good works alone.

Worship and Sacraments

Worship is at the heart of our community at St Paul’s United Methodist Church. We value the sacraments as sacred rituals that signify God's grace and presence. We celebrate baptism as a symbol of new life in Christ and regularly observe Holy Communion, where we remember Jesus' sacrifice and partake in the spiritual nourishment offered.

Social Justice and Outreach

As followers of Christ, we are called to act justly and seek the well-being of others. St Paul’s United Methodist Church is committed to social justice and community outreach. We actively engage in efforts to address issues like poverty, inequality, discrimination, and environmental stewardship. Through our actions, we aim to reflect God's love and compassion to the world.

Spiritual Growth and Discipleship

We believe in continuous spiritual growth and the importance of discipleship. St Paul’s United Methodist Church offers various opportunities for individuals to deepen their faith and develop their relationship with God. Through Bible studies, prayer groups, discipleship programs, and mentoring, we encourage members to grow in their understanding of God's Word and apply it to their daily lives.

Inclusive and Welcoming Community

St Paul’s United Methodist Church is committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming community for all. We strive to embrace diversity, respect individual differences, and celebrate the unique gifts and talents that each person brings. Everyone, regardless of age, race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, or physical ability, is invited to worship, serve, and find belonging in our church family.

Conclusion

At St Paul’s United Methodist Church, our beliefs form the foundation of our vibrant and loving community. We value the Word of God, embrace His love and redemption, and actively live out our faith through worship, sacraments, social justice, and spiritual growth. Join us as we journey together, supporting one another and making a positive impact on our world.
