About Us
Our Story
At the Port Wentworth Global Methodist Church, we have a deep desire to surrender fully to the one true God—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—and to live out a passionate devotion to what matters most to Him.
Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we are Disciples of God who worship passionately, love extravagantly, and witness boldly. Jesus calls us to love God wholeheartedly and our neighbors as ourselves, and we strive to embody His extravagant love in all we do.
Rooted in Scripture and led by the Spirit, we seek to advance God’s Kingdom in every culture and the Port Wentworth community. As a global church, we value the gifts of every member, walking together in mutual love, humility, and service.
Rev. Report
And he will be called…Everlasting Father. -Isaiah 9:6
What a remarkable string of names in Isaiah 9:6! Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Now, these were radical statements indeed, and they described the one who was coming to rule heaven and earth. A coming ruler might-if he were an ordinary ruler-simply assert his authority and prerogatives as sovereign. As we well know, a king is one who has the power because he has an army, and who has wealth because he controls the resources of his realm. That is the way of earthly rulers. But Isaiah also spoke of a ruler whom people would look to in far more personal terms: “Father.”
But Jesus would be no mere earthly ruler. His reign would be “everlasting.” Enduring, unstoppable, without challenge, having the qualities of heaven. An everlasting ruler would have to be a divine king.
It is a different kind of king who reigns as father. A king (or, for that matter, a prime minister, a president, etc.) does not have to treat his subjects as though the he were their father. They can wield power simply because they have it. But a ruler who cares for those in his realm, who truly wants to protect, and provide for his subjects out of a familial kind of love, is as much a father as he is king
Hundreds of years before his birth, Jesus was called “Everlasting Father” because his reign would be about protecting and providing-a king, yes, but a fatherly one. And we should not forget that Jesus’ relationship with God the Father was so close that Jesus could say: “If you have seen me, you have seen the Father.”
In some parts of the world, the legend of Santa Claus, derived from St. Nicholas, is called “Father Christmas.” At its best, the legend expresses the belief in someone out there that is bigger than life, full of benevolence and magical charm. That Everlasting Father exists. Nothing can compare to the reality that Jesus Christ has become, for the world, the Powerful Protector and Perfect Provider, a king whose authority is so right and so good, it will never end.
Born a child, destined to bring fatherly care. Always and forever. In this, the children of God place their faith and hope.

1 Corinthians 12:12-27 New King James Version
Unity
12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink to one Spirit. 14 For in fact the body is not one member but many.
