what we believe


Foothills United Methodist Church is a place where…

  • You can find belonging and it’s okay to be real
  • We strive to serve the greater good
  • There is freedom that honors each person’s journey
  • Where ministries fall into three broad categories:


Compassion & Service

  • Because internal belief should result in external action

Spiritual Formation

  • Because spiritual growth is a life-long process

Congregational Care

  • Because we all need help every once in awhile

HOW we believe

  • We need to learn from the insight and wisdom of people who have gone before us in faith.
  • We value our, and respecting one another’s, personal experiences of God.
  • We think deeply and critically... because our heart can’t accept what our mind rejects.
  • We know it is important to engage and wrestle with the Bible.
