Exciting!!!!
My current appintment has paid 100% of their apportionments for 20 years at least, they have never caused a burden on the reserves but this change will add an additional $6020 a year to their cost according to the calculation tool. So what happens when churches that are not paying now still don't pay? Is that why my church that has been paying all along will see a increase over the apportionment system?
Wow you speaking about praying over your work has blown my mind and thouch my heart. Thank you for sharing this. I'm making my first stole. I will be following your example throughout my needle work. Thank you again. I never thought of this as a ministry.
Thank you for making these available on TH-cam!
Thank you for this video. Would you share the link here for the first webinar?
This is evidence that the Methodist Church is a false church. Of course, they are connected to Jim Jones and the charismatic heroics that follow and the NAR Cult. not how they use these ghost stories for sensationalism they mock and smirk at send. Since they are not a real church, and they won't condemn this heresy, because they are not really worshiping the true "word made flesh" they have their religion named after a heretic that was a poltergeist ghost hunting fool
Thank you for sharing to TH-cam!
But skunks can be mad
My firm’s principals and impact statement is focused on how someone else perceives those statements. That is how we grow to understand, accept, and embrace others.
Hope we remove pronouns and just align us and the readings as family members, not aligned to anyone as he/she.
I am not better off than I was 4 years ago, therefore how can those that have less than I do be better off. We are struggling to pay our monthly expenses, I can't imagine what those who have less feel. This talk is given from an ivory tower and is one of the biggest reasons I left the Methodist church.
Explain to me how you aren't better off than 4 years ago. Did you know that the unemployment rate was at 15% in 2020 while Trump was president. Also do you not remember that Trump got on national TV and told the American people to inject themselves with bleach to kill the covd-19 virus. Also Trump told the American people over 30,753 lies while he was president and still does today. If you like being lied to and support terroristism by Trump then you go right ahead and vote for him. As Christian people we was taught not to hate one another but Trump wants Americans to turn on each and hate one another, if Christians across the nation can't see that then I don't know what to say. I vote Democratic for economic reasons and Democratic presidents handles the economy better than republican presidents do and that's a proven fact going back to world War 2.
Methodists have LONG SINCE abandoned the theology of Wesley!
Thank you Bishop Sue.
Excuse me, but is it too much to ask our representatives to dress up and look like the professional people they claim to be?

Welcome! Thank you for including all of all of us .

So excited for the Appomattox community !!!
If this woman was truly leading people by the Spirit and Word, she wouldn't affirm and condone the ungodly practice of homosexuality. Do you know what Jesus meant when He said, "I came not to bring peace on the earth, but a sword, and to set a man at variance with His neighbor?" He meant that taking a holy stance on matters of faith and practice will often come with severe social and relational consequences. It may just drive a permanent wedge between two people. Is it "hateful" for a doctor to inform a person he has cancer? Of course not. Neither is it hateful for a Christian to inform a practicing homosexual that such a practice is evil, and the true Christian will do just that. This woman is not a true servant of God but a "tare" of the wicked one.

Sadly, this woman is a godless "tare" of Satan, promoting that which God loathes under the banner of a false gospel.
Virginia can HAVE this despicable “bishop.” She wreaked havoc with her liberal ideologies and a “my way or the highway” approach within the North GA UMC conference. She’s part of the reason why the UMC is collapsing in on itself now. A pathetic excuse for a human being. She’s done more anti-Christian things than I can count to force her way/beliefs onto others and entire churches. And does so with a smile on her face. Good bye, and good riddance!

Thoughtful, faith-grounded, articulate. God bless you. May God bless our Conference in unique ways in this unique time.
Love celebrating our connection. Shenandoah River District Mt Zion-Willisville Cooperative Parish Lay Leader of Willisville Chapel Local Love these sessions. I am excited for the restoration and focus on leveraging our differences in love. We model Christ in all things. Thank you all
I appreciate the dedication the committee provides to each AC session.
Amen to the comments on doctrine, discipleship, and the growth of Christ's kingdom.
It won’t last you will go to hell for all eternity. May God have mercy
Diversity, Black Culture. Is simply very TOXIC
What a load of crap. Monitor that.
👀 alright, Bev
So for clarity... this resolutions committee can determine what resolutions might come before the AC?
Your ministry is beautiful. I'd love to learn how to make these for our priests.
Amanda, you are hilarious!
Thanks Jonathan. I'm showing some of the videos in my worship services to let our church know what's going on.
Yes, thank you. I am happy to see our Annual Conference help our preachers and churches understand the complex challenges of salary equity in the 21st century.
Thank you for your work and for providing these helpful videos.
Great opportunity to learn from each other
Love it! Lunch Labs
Well done. Thanks
No more arguing because you drove out the moderates. I'm sure that Mt. Bethel would disagree with you about "Christian love".
This didn't age well. A lot of breaking promises, timelines, and procedures after they realized many more churches wanted to leave than the few they expected. More than 7,000 now, I believe. I'm sure there would have been more leave if they hadn't starting making it almost impossible to leave before their cutoff date passed. It's also sad that the African congregants weren't fully represented at the Conference and able to vote according to their stances. Very sad when God's unchanging Word is totally ignored. Totally invalidates the whole UMC denomination and that's sad. This seems to remind me of how in the last days people in the faith will be swayed and deceived by the doctrine and teachings of demons. I grew up UMC; thankfully the Lord led me to Spirit filled church that believes and teaches the entirety of God's Word.
what a beautiful moment! thank you for uplifting these voices in a time of joy and celebration, i am more hopeful for the future of the UMC than ever before and for my place in it <3
Propaganda that didn’t age well.
Bye Bye UMC...😢😢 They will be closing down soon. But, it is ok! There is the Global Methodist Church!❤❤❤❤
Bye bye UMC
