ST PAUL’S UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
UNION UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
Bridgeport and Centre Square, New Jersey
Our Vision is to make disciples for Jesus by
proclaiming the Good News
of God’s Grace and thus seeking the
fulfillment of God’s reign and realm in the world
St
Paul’s and Union United Methodist Churches are member churches of The
Greater New Jersey Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church
and are a part of the Delaware Bay District which extends along the
lower Delaware River and across Gloucester, Salem, and Cumberland
Counties in Southwestern New Jersey.
We are in full agreement with the
vision and mission statements of the GNJAC as adopted at the Uniting
Conference August 4-6, 2000.
Vision Statement GNJAC
“We are an
Annual Conference of churches growing in discipleship and ministry for
Jesus Christ.”
Mission Statement GNJAC
"The purpose of the annual conference
is to make disciples for Jesus Christ by equipping its local churches
for ministry and by providing a connection for ministry beyond the
local church; all to the glory of God."
Worship
St Paul’s and Union make up the
Bridgeport / Centre Square Charge of the UMC and have been
ministering in what is now Logan Township for over 175 years.
We follow the Methodist practice of
Open Communion which is offered on the first Sunday of each month and
believe that all should participate, without regard to age or any
other restriction, since it is a means by which all can participate
in the free grace of God.
The churches of this Charge have
long served our community and seek new ways to meet the needs of
members of our communities of all ages. If you have not been able to
worship with us for some time, we invite you to come into our open
doors and become a part of our ministry. Help us understand and meet
the needs of the Logan Township Community.
Jesus
said, “Come unto
me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in
heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy,
and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
We at St Paul’s and Union United Methodist Churches extend this same
invitation to all. And we continue the aim of our conference that
the hurting may be healed, that the hungry may be fed, that the lost
may be found, that the Shalom of God may come upon the earth.
