"Do all the good you can,
by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can." John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church |
At the beginning of the Methodist revival movement in the 1700's, when Englishman John Wesley sent Francis Asbury off to America, Asbury asked, "What shall I tell them?" Wesley replied, "Offer them Christ!"
At Mt Bethel United Methodist Church we offer Christ through our mission of OUTREACH; Outwardly Utilizing Talents Reverently Extending A Christian Hand. Through signature ministries and partnering with local, metro, national & global agencies our zeal is to "offer them Christ!" |
