We know that God created us with unique gifts and abilities. (1 Corinthians 12:4-6). The Bible also tells us "all are one in Christ Jesus." (Galatians 3:28)

As we celebrate our diversity, United Methodists are called to embrace our unity as people of God, sharing our different likes, cultures, languages, ideas, and so much more, for God's Kingdom.

The Bible tells us that differences are God's design. Let's talk about and celebrate our diversity - and uniqueness - as God's children. Canva image design by United Methdoist Communications.
