It’s 2026, heading into the second year after the dramatic General Conference of 2024, and there is a big change in the global structure of the United Methodist Church: the Regionalization constitutional amendments have been ratified. Details of what that means for the church in the United States are being worked out, and it’s an exciting time to be studying our church polity! This session will cover where we are now and what comes next for our denomination, and what will not change at all for our congregations. It will help church leaders and longtime members lead, and help newcomers get their bearings. Our goal will be to understand how we serve and fulfill God’s call through Wesleyan organizational principles and connections with our local annual conferences. We’ll explore how such principles help our congregations be a place and a people that embody the Kingdom of God.
