I think people at MVP are genuinely trying to live with and love people of different walks of life. That environment of active openness has enriched my experience at MVP more than anything else. -- Ben S. |
A Radical Welcome |
|
Just as Jesus Christ invited everyone, we seek to faithfully extend Christ's life-giving welcome to all people. Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church recognizes that diversity is one of the greatest expressions of God's creativity, presence and grace. As a congregation, we are grateful for the many differences apparent in our community and in our experiences of God. We welcome all people into the life of this church, and celebrate and give thanks for our diversity of race, ethnicity, citizenship, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical and mental ability, faith background, economic status, appearance, marital condition, political persuasion, education, and life experience. We hope you will join us as we continue to discover how we can most faithfully include, learn from, and grow with all people in our community. Gracious God, help us to see what you are doing in your kingdom, and enable us to be part of it. Amen.
