Free Methodist Church in Southern California Information

We depend on the Holy Spirit; we work together to expand the Kingdom of God; we are a supportive community of Christians. We believe the primary instrument of God to accomplish his mission is the local church. The purpose of the FMCSC is to support the local church. Ministry in the 21st century in Southern California requires a collaborative approach. Long gone is the day when a solo pastor with an isolated congregation can address the complexities of church ministry alone. Instead, the cooperative blending of the varieties of gifts and strengths represented by our pastors and congregational leaders brings a synergistic empowerment to accomplish our mutual task. We are a broad spectrum of leaders, both male and female, ranging from Santa Barbara in the north to San Diego in the south. We are diverse ethnically, generationally and spiritually, but find our common purpose in the gospel of Jesus Christ and the Wesleyan tradition.
