Ministry Updates

Annual Charge Conference

At our Special Charge Conference on September 30, the congregation approved the move to a Unified Leadership Board, which will go into effect on January 1, 2026.

As the next step, the Nominations Committee will be creating a slate of leaders to serve in the new structure. If you feel called to serve, or if you would like to nominate someone else, please send nominations to Pastor Luana.

The slate of leaders—along with all annual reports—will be presented and voted on at our regular annual Charge Conference on Monday, October 20 at 7:00 p.m. in Fellowship Hall (in person).

We look forward to how God will use this new model to help us live more deeply into our mission here at Morristown UMC.

United Women in Faith’s next meeting is October 19. We will gather directly after church, so grab a bagel and coffee/tea and meet us in the Wesley Room. We would like your feedback on our August Family Promise Back-to-School Bash, and your input as how we might continue our mission work with FP. Also, bring your ideas for any other mission work.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and continuing to embrace and embody our motto – Love in Action!
