Who We Are

The Vision of Winchester First United Methodist Church is to be an unrelenting advocate for Christ to both the churched and unchurched.

What We Do (Our Mission)

Through our multi-generational ministries, we will develop disciples who know, love and serve Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

We are Driven to be (Our Values)

God-focused

We focus on God, seeking His kingdom as our first priority.  

Mark 12:30 — Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

People-Centered

We love others in unrelenting ways, so they can know they are loved and sought by God. 

John 13:34 — A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

Relationally-Based

We do all of life together in teams-by helping, encouraging and calling out the God-given gifts in others. 

Hebrews 10:24 — Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works.

Our Beliefs

As United Methodists, we affirm the faith shared by all Christians, with particular emphasis on God’s grace and on Christian living.  Our theology is grounded in scripture and expressed through foundational documents of the United Methodist Church including Articles of Religion and the Confession of Faith.
