Missions
Wesley's vision:
In a sermon called "The New Creation" given in 1785, Methodism's founder, John Wesley, considered the promises made in the Book of Revelation: no more death and no more pain, sickness, or grieving for or parting with friends. Wesley envisioned "an intimate, an uninterrupted union with God; a constant communion with the Father and His Son Jesus Christ, through the Spirit; a continual enjoyment of the Three-One God, and of all the creatures in Him!"
Ohltown UMC strives to keep with John Wesley's beliefs as they seek to " make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. As disciples of Christ we should work to transform the world into a new creation. It is with this mission in mind that we serve the church, community, nation and the world.
