Connecting Globally
In keeping with the Scriptural vision of all nations, tribes, and people coming together before God as well as John Wesley’s proclamation that “The world is my parish,” Metropolitan is called to serve beyond its local community. Through Volunteers in Mission teams, ongoing mission partnerships, and youth and adult work trips to various regions of our own country, the congregation seeks to enlarge its vision of extending radical hospitality, transforming lives, and pursuing justice through a wide array of global connections.
