Pastor:      Frederico Quezada     Music Director:      Diane Olson   Updated - June 5    © 2008 Ballard    United Methodist          Church. What We Believe (from umc.org) As United Methodists, we have an obligation to bear a faithful Christian witness to Jesus Christ, the living reality at the center of the Church’s life and witness. To fulfill this obligation, we reflect critically on our biblical and theological inheritance, striving to express faithfully the witness we make in our own time. Wesley believed that the living core of the Christian faith was revealed in Scripture, illumined by tradition, vivified in personal experience, and confirmed by reason.
