Committed to The UMC

Our future is bright

The United Methodist Church continues to be a source of light around the world. Our connection serves those in need and shares God’s love every single day. New faith communities are growing. A renewed sense of purpose is leading us forward.

Keep scrolling to find support and resources for congregations that are discussing disaffiliation, and for communities of faith that are entering a new chapter of mission and ministry.

If you want to remain United Methodist in the face of a local church disaffiliation, retain your membership by transferring it prior to your church’s official disaffiliation. If you need help finding a committed congregation, contact your District Superintendent, explore options in your annual conference, or search on Find-A-Church.
