"Gracious
God, you have stood in our midst for generations nurturing, guiding
,and sustaining us as your church. We seek your presence now as we
undertake what we believe to be your urging as we move forward in
ministry. Bricks and mortar might not be the things of which your
kingdom is constructed but willing hearts and dedicated lives surely
are. We ask that you lead us in service to a world that requires
nothing less than our very best and allow us to speak your name in all
we do for generations to come. Amen"
“There will come a
time when I pour out my Spirit on all people… The old among you shall
dream dreams and the young shall see visions. I will pour out my Spirit
on servants, men, and women alike.” Joel 2:28-29
It has been amazing to
watch how outreach and service, ministry, program and faith have grown
through the years. Since the early 1900s, the history
of this property has been a story of acquisition, renovation, and
transformation. Through the years our congregation has grown in numbers
and also in Christian Discipleship. We have chosen to remain at the oceanfront,
believing that God’s mission for us begins here. Our predecessors have
taken bold steps to bring us to this place and time and it is now our
time to take the next faithful steps toward the future of Beach United Methodist Church.
WHY CONTINUE TO GROW?
- Our mission is to “Gather in Christ’s Name, to Grow in His love, and to Glorify Him in ministry and mission to all people.”
- Many of those who now attend VBUMC might not be in a church if we had not continued to grow.
- How much more are we doing now – in worship,
faith, education, and outreach – than we were able to do years ago, and
what more could we do?
