Our Beliefs

The Plymouth and Exeter District, being part of the Methodist Church, subscribes to the doctrinal standards and creeds of the historic church and our current emphasis is "Our Calling".

The calling of the Methodist Church is to respond to the gospel of God's love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission. It does this through:

Arrow Worship: the Church exists to increase awareness of God's presence and to celebrate God's love.
Arrow Learning & Caring: the Church exists to help people grow and learn as Christians through mutual support and care.
Arrow Service: the Church exists to be a good neighbour to people in need and to challenge injustice.
Arrow Evangelism: the Church exists to make more followers of Jesus Christ.

The Methodist Church also has a series of priorities following on from this calling which underpin all of its work, these can be seen on the Priorities page.
