We understand this and want to invite you to a candlelight service on Thursday, December 19 at 7:00 p.m. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives.

United Methodist Church – A Message from the Council of Bishops
_________________________
The UMC Constitution
The United Methodist Church proclaims the value of each person as a unique child of God and commits itself to the healing and wholeness of all persons.
The United Methodist Church recognizes that the sin of racism has been destructive to its unity throughout its history. Racism continues to cause painful division and marginalization.
The United Methodist Church shall confront and seek to eliminate racism, whether in organizations or in individuals, in every facet of its life and in society at large.
The United Methodist Church shall work collaboratively with others to address concerns that threaten the cause of racial justice at all times and in all places.
~from The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church 2016, paragraph 5
