Discerning your church's future
As our denomination struggles with disagreements over church law and human sexuality, some churches are choosing to disaffiliate from The United Methodist Church.
Whether your congregation is in the midst of discerning whether to stay United Methodist, hearing about other congregations disaffiliating or has questions about what is going on, you'll find resources here that provide factual information to help your church navigate these difficult questions.
