I commend those involved in transitioning the districts to get the district superintendents into the local church and relieve them of some of the administrative processes. Planting new churches is important but I hope the small membership churches are high on the priority list of finding ways to assist those congregations who are struggling.

I agree with Bill. Oxford UMC and St. Peter’s are indeed just a few blocks apart in the city of Oxford. I realize that St. Peter’s is part of a charge in which the other church is in Vance county. However, Oxford UMC is historically white and St. Peter’s is historically African-American. These churches have been working to bridge the gap, overcome the barriers, develop a relationship, and work together to benefit the entire community and advance the cause of Christ. Now there will be yet another barrier to overcome. I also vote for compass point district names.

Plan UMC manages to have Committees on Inclusiveness, Higher Education, Global Ministries, Church and Society, and Discipleship . . . but not one designated “evangelism.”

I must admit I was taken aback by the new district names. My first impressions were not necessarily positive, as I thought the names were rather trite and uninspired. However, in looking at the geographical make-up of each district, I have a better understanding why these names were chosen. Obviously, the committee was attempting to capture the character of each respective region and I think for the most part,they succeeded. I do not envy them for the task they were assigned. Congratulations. Nicely done.

It is what we have all known. We are being driven back to our original ethos which is exciting to experience. Discipleship is learned in community. Our world and communities are demanding that each of us again be authentic disciples of Jesus Christ. They are seeking Christ and desperately need to see Him in us.

I would have liked to have seen religious names for church districts, not historical or sports or ????

Hey Dean, there are two separate dates. I’ve updated the post with the correct dates.
