Gift of Hope

Dec 23, 2019 | Unity

Across the United Methodist connection many experience impatience, discouragement, weariness, and anxiety as we continue to grapple with the fallout from the 2019 Special Session of General Conference. A palpable feeling of looming, intense struggles over what to teach, how to teach, and what to do permeates our shared life.

In the midst of that uncertainty, we rejoice in the voices of siblings in our Central Conferences singing a new song of hope that offers a pathway for claiming our common mission and ministry. We welcome this wonderful gift with expectation and gratitude, especially in this season of waiting and watching for Jesus.

Uniting Methodists is a movement rather than an organization. As a movement we are striving for greater inclusion and genuine representation in pursuit of shared goals. The statements found on this website represent our current consensus about important questions before the church. We invite suggestions, critique, and engaging conversations from persons across the UMC. The Uniting Methodists Leadership Team views this work as iterative and certain to be added to and enhanced over time.

* Uniting Methodists is a not-for-profit movement made up of members of The United Methodist Church and is not associated in any way with Room for All, Inc., an LGBTQ advocacy organization in the Reformed Church in America.
