United Methodist Social Principles
Skyline is a progressive United Methodist Church where all people are truly welcome, including many who are typically shunned in other churches. We accept people where they are in their spiritual journey and encourage them to grow in grace and share the gift of their lives with others, in the power of Jesus Christ. All people are welcomed into the life and leadership of the church. Examples of leadership include Staff, Lay Leader, worship team, and Sunday School teacher.
Skyline Church is a Reconciling Ministries Network congregation, which means that we declare ourselves to be open and affirming.
