Opportunity to Help Minority Congregations

God is making a way, when it seemed there was no way! We received the most amazing news this week! A congregation in the MidTexas Conference has generously given an initial gift of $75,000 to assist Hispanic Congregations (especially those in the Valley) with disaffiliation costs. Grants will be made available directly to these congregations through the MidTexas Conference.
Many of the churches in the Rio Grande Valley hearts align with the Global Methodist Church, but the cost of disaffiliation is so high it jeopardizes their ability to be in ministry. MidTexas is so grateful for this lead gift, which will help these congregations to faithfully discern without financial roadblocks.
We have established a designated fund to assist any minority congregations wishing to affiliate with the Global Methodist Church. If you would like to donate to this fund, please send checks to:
Melodie Trimble, Financial Secretary
MidTexas Provisional Conference
4901 Cobbs Drive
Waco, TX 76710
We give God thanks for this generous congregation and for the congregations this grant will assist.

The Jesus Formula: A Divine Plan for Evangelism

Want to learn more about practical evangelism? Join us this Tuesday, Feb. 21 at 7 pm, for the first installment of The Jesus Formula: A Divine Plan for Evangelism, a four-part Zoom series. Rev. Mark Winter, chairperson of the Mid-Tex Evangelism Team, will be your host, teaching from Luke 10:1-8 and interviewing some incredible guests at every session. First up will be Rev. Amy Anderson, the dynamic pastor of First Methodist Church in Mart, TX, near Waco. Rev. Amy has grown her church with a variety of powerful ministries, including the twice-weekly J.A.M. children's program that includes worship, mentoring, and recreation. Check out the Mart Methodist website at www.fmcmart.org.
