The Mission of the Sandy Creek United Methodist Church Is

The Mission of the Sandy Creek United Methodist Church is:

To open hearts by putting faith and love in action through works, deeds and words that heal and free; To open our minds by worshiping together as a faith family, by reading and studying the Bible and by growing in knowledge and love of God through disciplined Christian living; To open our doors by living the belief that all persons are of sacred worth, and by seeking to live locally, nationally, and globally in Christian community, welcoming, loving and forgiving one another.
