The Ministry of Monroe United Methodist Church

With God at the hub of our lives,
Shoulder to shoulder with our brothers and sisters,
Held together in community and powered by the Holy Spirit,
We are on the move in ministry in Christ's service.

When we move toward the center,
We are not only closer to God,
We are closer to one another.

When we move out in ministry to the world,
Though we may be farther apart,
We are still connected, one to another.

A wheel is designed to move,
To advance, to carry, to support.
A wheel wants to roll,
To see and be part of the world.

Come and be part of God's wheel,
Come and be close and move out.
Join in and be part of the journey
That takes us to places unknown.

Our mission is:

to keep Christ at the center of our lives, individually and as a community
to gather as a faith community to worship and praise God
to discern God's will for us as individuals and as a community
to support each other as individual members of our congregation
to nurture, support and teach the children of God to be Christ's disciples
to celebrate and develop the gifts that God has given us
to use our gifts to make a positive difference in our world in the name of Christ
to work for a world in which all God's children will be able to celebrate and develop their gifts.
