At DeWitt United Methodist Church, we are Christians who are
excited to be part of the United Methodist Church.
What is a United Methodist?
United Methodists are the second largest Protestant
denomination in America. We are the home to both President
Bush and Senator Dole, as well as President Clinton’s family
when he was in the White House.
United Methodists hold to the historic doctrines of the Christian
faith. We are evangelical, but moderates rather than
fundamentalists. We value the intellect and modern science,
while at the same time looking to the Bible as the authoritative
guide for faith and practice. Methodists have a passionate faith
with strong convictions, but we also recognize that the world is
not always black and white. We are willing to ask questions, to
wrestle with difficult issues, and to do so with grace and
compassion.
Methodists have been known for our emphasis on a personal
faith, lived out in concrete ways in the world. We have
historically valued well-informed and passionate preaching,
worship that was lively, and small groups where people could
grow in faith.
Methodists have open hearts, and open minds--and welcome
anyone interested in learning more about the Christian faith.
If you would like to know more about what it means to follow
Christ, please call 563-659-3519 or email us.
