Discussion and Vote – Reconciling Ministries Network
The Mayfair Heights congregation is exploring what it would mean for us to become a Reconciling Church with the Reconciling Ministries Network. This exploration is in keeping with the changes in The 2024 Discipline Of The United Methodist Church as a result of General Conference. It is also in keeping with our support of all persons in all kinds of places and circumstances in this life.
During the Sunday School time this Sunday, June 15, we will be led in discussion by Rev. Jeni Markham Clewell, retired Deacon in the United Methodist Church, and Rev. Dr. Jonathan Drummond, our Connectional Pastor.
The Reconciling Ministries Network (RMN) is “committed to intersectional justice across and beyond the United Methodist connection, working for the full participation of all LGBTQ+ people throughout the life and leadership of the Church.” For more information, please go to RMN’s website: https://rmnetwork.org.
We will vote as a congregation on Sunday, June 22, at the beginning of the worship service on whether to join Reconciling Ministries Network. All members of Mayfair Heights United Methodist Church, including Associate Members and Clergy affiliated with this Charge Conference, will be able to vote on this proposal.
