A United Methodist theology of service is developed in the general context of United Methodist sacramental theology. Baptism, as a sign of covenant with God, marks the entry into a Christian life of service in the world. Holy Communion marks the continual nurturing of the Christian through the Holy Spirit in following the way of Jesus.
