That Salem Church and the Global Methodist Church exist to make disciples of Jesus Christ and spread Scriptural holiness across the globe.
Vision Statement:
Through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, the Global Methodist Church envisions multiplying disciples of Jesus Christ throughout the earth who flourish in Scriptural holiness as we worship passionately, love extravagantly, and witness boldly.
Our core beliefs follow the Holy Scriptures, the Apostles’ Creed, and the Nicene Creed.
We believe in God:
Who has created and is creating,
who has come in Jesus,
Son of God, Savior;
the Way, the Truth, the Life.
the Word made flesh,
to reconcile and make new,
Who guides us through the holy Scriptures
Who works in us and others
by the Spirit.
We trust in God.
We are called to be the Church:
to celebrate God’s presence in Sacrament and service:
to live with respect in Creation,
to love and serve others,
to seek justice and resist evil,
to proclaim Jesus, crucified and risen,
our judge and our hope.
In life, in death, in life beyond death,
God is with us.
We are not alone.
Thanks be to God.
