Beaverton First United Methodist Church Thinking . Loving . Praying

Racial Justice

The United Methodist Church proclaims the value of each person as a unique child of God and commits itself to the healing and wholeness of all persons.

The United Methodist Church recognizes that the sin of racism has been destructive to its unity throughout its history. Racism continues to cause painful division and marginalization.

The United Methodist Church shall confront and seek to eliminate racism, whether in organizations or in individuals, in every facet of its life and in society at large.

The United Methodist Church shall work collaboratively with others to address concerns that threaten the cause of racial justice at all times and in all places.

Our Vision

Here at the heart of Beaverton, Christ calls us to feed our community, body, mind, and spirit.

Our Mission

Knowing that our works change our community and ourselves; we seek to ensure that no one in the Beaverton area goes hungry. We investigate the teachings of Christ through research and communion with others, and respectfully share the love of God with all.

Reconciling Congregation

Beaverton First UMC is a Reconciling Congregation. As people who choose to follow the example of Jesus Christ, we recognize everyone as a person of worth in the sight of God. We welcome all our brothers and sisters regardless of age, economic status, faith history, ethnicity, gender, mental or physical ability, marital status, sexual orientation, or gender identification. Together we journey towards reconciliation, proclaiming this statement of welcome to all who have known the pain of exclusion and discrimination within the church.
