Our Mission Statement

Caledonia UMC will:  Serve our community in the name of Jesus Christ by spreading the Good News of God's unlimited love and forgiveness; Strengthen faith through Christian education for people of all ages; Connect in Christian fellowship with our family, our community, and the world.

The United Methodist book of Social Principles states “The foundation of Christian living is faith in Christ. Faith is the central loyalty that give purpose and direction to our lives.” It states further “faith does not happen overnight, it’s a journey. From birth to death we’re growing in faith. There are ups and downs, and sometimes long flat stretches where we seem to be stalled in our journey. But little by little our relationship with God deepens.” Now we must also remember what it says in James 2:26 “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” The faith we develop through our journey called life is a gift that we are called to share by participating in the world around us. It is our choice to be the hands, feet and voice for God at this moment in time.
