Organizers of the United Methodist Church’s General Conference announced last week they are moving forward with plans for the meeting next fall…for now.
United Methodist bishops have canceled a special session of the global denomination’s General Conference that was scheduled to meet May 8 online.
With reports of cases throughout the Washington metropolitan area and the pandemic declaration by the World Health Organization, “there was no question anymore,” so Struchen and other congress planners decided Wed., Mar. 11, that they had to cancel their event.
