NRUMC's MISSION:

Encouraging People on their Journey to Discover Extraordinary Life in Christ.

 

We are all on the path of discovery. Jesus is forever calling us to new life, extraordinary life. We commit to taking this journey together!

OUR VISION STATEMENT

 

We glorify God and make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world by offering a safe and caring environment for anyone who is searching to be spiritually fulfilled and accepted.

OUR CORE VALUES

Grace: God’s unearned love is always at work in our lives, going before us, redeeming us, and continually shaping us in Christ’s likeness. We seek to embrace grace and impart it to one another.

Compassion: As God suffers with us, we, too, are called to deeply engage and even suffer with one another and our broken world.

Generosity: All of life is a gracious outpouring from our God who invites us to live reflectively of this divine love, pouring ourselves generously into each other and our world.

Authenticity: Aligning our words and actions with God’s perfect love;

Inclusivity: We welcome all who seek to know Christ and provide a place to belong, serve, grow, and encounter our living God.

Courage: With openness and boldness of faith, we embody Jesus’ prayer as he contemplated the cross, “Not my will, but yours [God’s] be done.”
