The
Mission Statement of the Greensburg District of the United
Methodist Church:
To assist, educate, and energize local churches to make
disciples for Jesus Christ for the transformation of the
world.
The Vision Statement of
the Greensburg District of the United Methodist Church, over
the next quadrennium, is to:
Discover –
Ensure that existing United Methodist local churches are
healthy, growing in professions of faith and strategically
positioned throughout the Greensburg District.
Stretch –
Increase the United Methodist presence within the Greensburg
District by developing new ministries and communities of
faith.
Lead – To
create an environment where people can live out their
passion for Jesus Christ.
Go – Increase
local church involvement in mission, justice [such as racial
inclusion and accessibility issues] and outreach ministry,
locally, regionally, nationally, and globally.
Connect –
Improve the relationship of local churches with their
communities and other United Methodist Churches, and the
Annual, Jurisdictional, and General Conferences to enhance
the quality of life for God’s people. In recognition of our
United Methodist connection, it is expected that all local
churches will pay at least 100% of their Mission Share.
