  • And Greetings from Our Bishop
    WELCOME AND GREETINGS FROM OUR BISHOP Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, Welcome to the annual session of the Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church. We join together during these days as disciples of Jesus Christ and leaders in his mission. This year we will celebrate our calling to be “On Mission Together,” and our vision to cultivate courageous leadership, missional engagement and spirit-led innovation. Our conference will be marked by music and worship, study and prayer, debate and conferencing, fellowship and laughter, business and visioning. We will license, commission and ordain men and women for set apart leadership in the church. We will send clergy into congregational and extension leadership for the coming year. We will elect laity and clergy delegates to the 2020 General Conference. We will celebrate extraordinary faithfulness in response to natural disasters in our region, and we will process the outcomes of the recent Special Session of the 2019 General Conference. And we will return to our local churches, more aware of our connection as Florida United Methodists. Gathering at Florida Southern College in Lakeland, the Annual Conference will begin with the celebration of Holy Communion. Our keynote speakers will be extraordinary: Bishop Will Willimon of Duke Divinity School will be our conference preacher, and Dr. Dana Robert of Boston University will be our teacher. Dr. Gary Spencer will preach the memorial sermon and Dr. Cynthia Weems, dean of the cabinet, will give the cabinet’s report. Inspirational music will be led by Jarvis Wilson and Keith Wilson of Atlanta, Georgia. Our offerings will support the re-development of the Wesley Foundation at Florida A & M University, and the launch of a new church inside Lowell Women’s Prison in Reddick.

  • The Work of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in China, 1848-1886
    Methodist History, 31:3 (April 1993) FROM MISSION TO ANNUAL CONFERENCE: THE WORK OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, SOUTH, IN CHINA, 1848-1886 MELVILLE 0. WILLIAMS, JR. Background of Foreign Missions in the M.E.C.S. John Wesley's combination of the warmed heart and the world parish gave to the churches following him a great motivation for world mission. This motivation had to survive the traumatic split in the Methodist Episco­ pal Church in 1844 over the slavery issue, the southern section becoming the Methodist Episcopal Church, South (M.E.C.S.). In the division of work and responsibility, the M.E.C.S. was left with missions to Native Americans, slaves, German -speaking Americans and to the poor. These constituted a large home mission field. There were no foreign missions. This lack greatly distressed many in the southern church. Their thoughts and concerns were best set forth by Dr. William M. Wightman, Editor of the Southern Christian Advocate, Charleston, S.C., in a ringing editorial in that paper, September 5, 1845, "A Mission to China." He wrote of the need and the opportunity-five treaty ports had just been opened to foreigners- and he called for action, including mission volunteers. Many readers were deeply moved, but none more so than was Benjamin Jenkins, a well-educated printer who was setting the type for the editorial. He knew he was called to service in China. He offered himself and was ready to go as opportunity developed. 1 The other volunteer was Charles Taylor, M.D., of New York state, a graduate of New York University, with additional medical studies in Philadelphia, where he received his medical degree.

  • Welcome and Greetings from Our Bishop
    WELCOME AND GREETINGS FROM OUR BISHOP Sisters and Brothers of the Florida Conference, We welcome you once again to Lakeland for the meeting of the Florida Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church on June 7-9, 2018. As we gather from across our state, we do so with a sense of history; this is the 50th anniversary of our denomination, which was formed in 1968 in the merger of the Evangelical United Brethren and Methodist Churches. Our theme for the annual conference is “Remembering Who We Are!” We will worship, sing, pray, study, listen and challenge each other in a renewed attention to our mission: “to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.” Our guest preachers will be Bishop Sue Haupert-Johnson of the North Georgia Conference and Bishop Gregory Palmer of the West Ohio Conference. Dr. Paul W. Chilcote of Asbury Theological Seminary in Orlando will also speak to us. Dr. Geraldine McClellan will preach the Memorial Service, and Jeremy Hearn will lead our music. This annual conference will also give significant time to preparation for the February 2019 called General Conference in St. Louis, which will act on the report of the Commission on a Way Forward. The focus of this time will be on listening to one another and sharing the conversations we have been offering in our local churches and communities. The offering this year will be for two purposes. The first is Zoe, a mission that empowers the world’s most vulnerable children to move toward sustainability and flourishing, and the second is a fund that will support laity and clergy in our conference to create innovative ministries that will reach new people.
