I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.
John 13:34 (NRSVA)Every person is made in God's image and is of equal value
Everyone is welcome
The Methodist Church is committed to Justice, Dignity and Solidarity. We believe that all people are uniquely made in the image of God, and we aim to live this out in the Church and in our communities. This forms our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) work.
God saw everything that he had made, and indeed, it was very good.

Action for hope
The climate emergency is one of the most pressing concerns in the world today, but it is not merely a secular one. As Christians and Methodists we are called to care for God’s creation and challenge injustice, so climate concerns are inherently missional and part of our discipleship.
And what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8Challenging the injustices of the world
Seeking justice
As Christians we’re called to seek God’s justice. Justice that enables everyone, and all creation, to flourish. Justice that removes everything that diminishes people, that oppresses or exploits them. Justice that enables us all to grow in relationship with each other and with God.
I have called you friends.
John 15:15Building real friendships in diverse communities
Exploring spirituality
Methodists believe God is For All. The opportunity to know God and the transformation faith can bring is available to you, and we would love to help you discover God's love for you and the world.
