GoodSamUMC

Third, this is a Knowing congregation—not as much concerned with just knowing a lot of rules or facts, but committed to knowing the immeasurable love of God more and more. Faith is not a matter of just believing somebody’s list of rules; it’s about growing in relationship with God and seeing the world through a spiritual perspective.

There are a lot of great churches in our community, and if you are actively attending one of them, then we hope you will continue in your faithfulness to that congregation. But if you do not have a church home, then this congregation may be the place for you. We invite you to explore our web site - send us an email - visit our congregation this Sunday. Here's what we think is important for you to know about the Good Samaritan United Methodist Church:
	First, this is a Welcoming congregation—we want to emphasize love not condemnation, possibility not pessimism, invitation not exclusion. We make participation easy for busy people and families who have little time to spare. Click here to see a video presentation of Good Sam, in .wmv format, by Pastor Kristie Olah.
	Second, this is a Growing congregation—not just in numbers but in a deep life-giving relationship with God that can positively impact all of daily life. In a time of increasing anxiety, we strive for a spirituality that overcomes fear and leads to abundant life. That comes from faith, laughter, education and real concern.

	Fourth, this is a Going congregation—we don’t just preach about the Christian life, we attempt to go forth to live it with integrity and conviction, in loving service to God’s world. We believe that faith and action go together in authentic religion.
