Our vision is to be a diverse church where faithful disciples of Jesus Christ grow in spirit, nurture one another and respond to human need.

We believe that all human beings are persons of sacred worth, are recipients of God’s love and grace and deserve our love.  We believe that God is constantly being revealed to us through the ancient scriptures, the traditions of the church, our reason and spiritual experiences.  We believe that the life of Jesus is filled with love, compassion and forgiveness rather than judgment and condemnation.

Therefore, The Lovely Lane United Methodist Church welcomes, accepts and affirms all persons without regard to gender, ethnic background, sexual orientation, national origin, age, physical or mental ability, marital status, economic condition or anything else that may exclude them from our love and God’s grace.  Following Christ’s example, our members commit to invite and provide ministry to, for, and with all persons without exception.
