United Methodists to hold first worldwide conference since LGBTQ inclusion spurred schism
Fox News
The United Methodists are holding the first General Conference, a meeting attended by church representatives from around the world, since thousands of congregations disaffiliated.
This year, the 11-day gathering runs from April 23 to May 3. Among those assembling are hundreds of voting delegates — the United Methodists from across the globe who were elected to represent their regional church body — though as many as one-quarter of international delegates are not confirmed as able to attend. The delegates, half clergy and half lay Methodists, are the decision makers at General Conference.
