As a global community of over 12 million people, the United Methodist Church is committed to opening hearts, minds, and doors to the world around us. At our core is the belief that faith must be put into action, a philosophy that traces back to our founder John Wesley and the early Methodists. Our emphasis on “practical divinity” is still a defining feature of our faith today.

We are proud of our rich theological heritage and invite you to explore it further. If you have any questions about our beliefs or how we engage with our community, please visit the home of the United Methodist Church to read more about the Church’s Mission Statement.
