As we enter this third week of prayer and fasting for the mission and unity of The United Methodist Church, annual conferences continue to meet. During the gatherings, annual conferences will elect or confirm their delegates to the February 23-26, 2019 special session of the General Conference to be held in St. Louis. Together we will pray for this process.If you have not already seen the overview of Phase 3 of Praying Our Way Forward click here to watch this video.
