Reconciling Ministry

Ballard United Methodist Church is a member of the Reconciling Ministry Network of the United Methodist Church.  As such, we are in agreement with the RMN foundational statement:

“We celebrate God’s gift of diversity and value the wholeness made possible in community equally shared and shepherded by all. We welcome and affirm people of every gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation, who are also of every age, race, ethnicity, physical and mental ability, level of education, and family structure, and of every economic, immigration, marital, and social status, and so much more. We acknowledge that we live in a world of profound social, economic, and political inequities. As followers of Jesus, we commit ourselves to the pursuit of justice and pledge to stand in solidarity with all who are marginalized and oppressed.” 

The people of Ballard United Methodist Church strive to live and love as Jesus did.  Whoever you are, you are welcomed here.
