Our Ecumenical Commitment

The ecumenical concern of the church extends to all who live in God's Household. The whole inhabited earth – the meaning of OIKOUMENE, the Greek word from which "Ecumenical" derives – is God's Creation, home to those whom God created in God's own holy image.

Trinity United Methodist Church is a member of the Queens Federation of Churches and shares with its sister congregations in Christ in the Borough of Queens the vision to embrace the whole family of God. Queens County is the most ethnically diverse county in the nation and has become the veritable intersection of God's whole world.

We share this ecumenical commitment with The United Methodist Church which is an active participating member of both the World Council of Churches and the National Churches of Christ in the USA.
