During this period of change in The United Methodist Church, the North Carolina Conference is also being reshaped. As churches are being born and others are disaffiliating, there will be change to our structures in order to keep fulfilling our mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
A Futures Team has been organized by Bishop Fairley to look at the ways we need to restructure so we can continue to sustain and grow as an annual conference and adapt for the future in this ever-evolving situation. Team members include Beth Hood, Kenneth Locklear, Freda Davis, Tom Santa, Steve Taylor, Christine Dodson, Lou Jennings, Melba McCallum, Roxie Lee Floyd, Martha Caves, Sunny Limm, Anne Lloyd, John Hall, Ismael Ruiz-Millan, Gray Southern, and Bishop Fairley.
The team will meet several times during the coming months and may be reaching out to you for your thoughts and ideas.
