OUR MISSION AND VISION

At Bridgeport United Methodist Church, our mission and vision guide who we are, how we worship, and how we serve our neighbors.

Our Mission

Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

At Bridgeport United Methodist Church, our mission shapes everything we do.

 

We believe discipleship is a lifelong journey of learning to love God and neighbor more fully—through worship, prayer, study, service, and community.

 

As we follow Jesus together, we trust that lives are changed, communities are renewed, and God’s grace is made visible in the world.

Faith is formed in relationships—across generations, through care, conversation, and love.

Our Vision

We envision Bridgeport United Methodist Church as a Matthew 25 congregation,
called to live out Christ’s love in tangible ways—
especially among the least, the last, the lonely, and the left out.

Guided by Scripture and rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, we seek to be a church where:

  • All people are welcomed with dignity and grace

  • Faith is nurtured across generations

  • Compassionate service and justice-seeking are integral to discipleship

  • Worship and mission shape one another

  • Love is practiced, not just proclaimed

Faith that leaves the building and shows up for our neighbors.

Living Our Mission and Vision

Living out our mission and vision means gathering for worship that centers us in God’s grace, growing in faith through study and fellowship, and going into the world to serve with humility and courage.

 

As a Matthew 25 church, we are committed to ministry with our neighbors, not merely for them—listening, learning, and working together for wholeness, justice, and hope.

 

We believe the church is not defined only by what happens within its walls, but by how God’s love is embodied in daily life, in our community, and beyond.

This includes worship that welcomes all ages, study that deepens faith, and hands-on service that meets real needs in our community.

Whether you are exploring faith for the first time or looking for a church home, you are welcome here!

We invite you to join us as we seek to follow Jesus faithfully, love our neighbors boldly,

and participate in God’s transforming work in the world.

ABOUT US
