The United Methodist Church is a community of believers and seekers, with differences in age, class, nationality, race, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, abilities and limitations. At Sudbury United Methodist Church we recognize that there are attitudes, concerning these diverse characteristics, which violate the integrity of individuals and deny the richness of God’s creation. Therefore we affirm our welcome to all people into our community of faith. We are committed to be a fellowship in which all persons feel a part of our family, enabling them to grow in their faith, to be fed by our fellowship and to contribute their talents to the life of the church in its worship, programs and outreach. We call the church and society to be sensitive to all persons and to advocate programs which attempt to ensure justice for all.
