WITNESS
We are commanded by Christ to go into all the world and teach and preach to everyone we interact with that they may hear about the salvation available in Jesus Christ. In addition, we consider how to provoke each other to love and do good deeds in the church and the community. In all of this, the goal is that by the Holy Spirit we will be transformed into imitators of God. As this occurs, not only is the local church transformed, but the community is also in the process of being transformed. This process is called sanctification and is ongoing. On Sunday mornings, in addition to street parking, we are permitted to use the parking lots at Demain’s Funeral Home (Gibbon & S. St. Asaph) and the cleaners at the corner of Franklin and Washington Street.
Sharing Our Faith
Reflections Playlist Coming Soon!
Roberts is committed to being a witness in this world of dis-harmony. We partner within our community to educate ourselves and actively engage with others to eliminate racism and encourage others to do the same.
Racial Reconciliation
The United Methodist Church has a long history of advocating for social justice. John Wesley and the early Methodists expressed their opposition to societal ills such as slavery, smuggling, inhumane prison conditions, alcohol abuse, and child labor. Learn how we continue in ministries of justice today and find places where you can serve.
Advocating for others and educating ourselves to witness for full and equal participation of all as we seek to eliminate double standards in all aspects of life in the world, but especially in the U.S.
Social Justice
Preach without words. We demonstrate the growth and transformation that Christ has had in our lives in our communities through deeds of love. This may look different in different circumstances. We volunteer in the community, hold events to help empower others to be made whole, advocate for the disadvantaged, and assist in feeding others.
Helping
Roberts partners with various organizations throughout Alexandria and vaccinity in service to the community. We believe that we are to let our sermon be our works as much as or more than the words we say.
