Question: Who Are United Methodists?

Answer: The United Methodist Church is a global denomination that opens hearts, opens minds and opens doors through active engagement with our world. The mission of The United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

A United Methodist is someone who joins in that mission by putting faith and love into action. We believe that God loves all people, and that we share in expressing that love. So the United Methodist tradition emphasizes God's grace and in serving others. We believe that Jesus Christ is the fullest expression of God's love--showing us the fullness of God's care through Jesus' teachings, death and resurrection.

John Wesley started the Methodist movement in 18th century England. His teachings on practical divinity (living out our faith) and appeals to reason and experience form important aspects of United Methodist practice today.

Question: What Do United Methodists Believe?

Answer: The United Methodist Church shares a great deal with other Christian denominations. We believe God's grace is open to all, and therefore practice 'open Communion'--meaning that anyone may participate in receiving Communion. We believe salvation is an open gift from God, accepted by individuals according to their own free will. The United Methodist denomination is a 'big tent' theologically, providing space for theological discourse and, at times, disagreement.

Like many other Christian groups, we affirm the beliefs expressed in the Apostles Creed. These include:

The belief in one God, who is the Creator and sustainer of the universe.

The belief in the Trinity, that there is one God in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The belief in the divinity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who is fully human and fully divine.

Question: What Do United Methodists Do?

Answer: John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement, taught that we pursue our faith in community and action with others. We practice a social holiness. We insist that personal salvation always involves Christian mission and service to the world. The United Methodist Church has a long history of action and advocacy for social justice.

United Methodists are active in their communities and in the world through a variety of ways, including:

Participating in local mission projects and service initiatives

Supporting global mission efforts through the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) and other mission organizations

Advocating for social justice and working to address issues such as poverty, hunger, and inequality

Providing educational and vocational training opportunities

Offering counseling, support groups, and other forms of pastoral care

Creating and supporting community development programs

United Women In Faith

Here at Sunny Side UMC, we have an awesome group of ladies that meets the second Saturday of each month at 9:30AM in our Education Building. We are a group of women whose purpose is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ. We are very mission-minded, both locally and abroad.

Our United Women In Faith has adopted “The Little Free Library” located at the Sunny Side City Hall. We always need new or gently used children’s books. We also partner with Beaverbrook Elementary, focusing on staff encouragement and support. Please join us in this great local mission!
