This series invites us to return to the heart of our identity—not just in name, but in practice. Each time someone becomes a United Methodist, they say yes to living out their faith as a member of the Church through their prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. These aren’t just churchy words—they’re a way of life.

We’ll explore how these five commitments can make a world of difference in our individual lives and in our experience of church together. They remind us that our faith is both personal and communal, grounded in grace and lived out in love.

No matter our story, there are certain deep needs and longings that we all share. In this 3-week series, we’ll explore what connects us as humans. As we do, we hope to deepen our appreciation and care for one another as members of the Body of Christ. Everyone longs to belong. Everyone needs grace. Everyone is searching for purpose. And the good news is: Christ offers all of that—and more—not just to some, but to everyone.
