A Word from the Assembly of Bishops | Beauty of Holiness 2026 ☀️

Family and Friends of the Global Methodist Church,

Our gratitude for God's goodness and your faithfulness in the days we shared together in South Africa. The spirit in the room, even during moments of important deliberation, was full of kindness and grace. We echo others in appreciating the rich times of worship, profound preaching, and deeply meaningful times of communion.

We give thanks for the people of South Africa, the host churches, delegates, volunteers staff, worship leaders, interpreters, production teams, prayer teams, and countless servants who made the gathering possible. As we engaged in holy conferencing across culture and languages, we have experienced God working through our best efforts to create a historic and life-giving moment.

At a deeper level, we noticed the palpable presence of trust among us. That indicates our desire to depend entirely upon the Holy Spirit, grow in perfect love, and live deeply into community. As the psalmist has written, "How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity" (Psalm 133:1). The joyful, loving, and productive culture of this General Conference now returns to annual conferences and local churches around the globe with our sincere hope that this same culture will flourish among us.

We on the Assembly of Bishops have grown close in the two years we've worked together. We will deeply miss those who are not returning — Scott Jones, Jeff Greenway, Kenneth Levingston, Leah Hidde-Gregory, Kimba Evariste and John Pena Auta. There are no words to express the depth of our love and appreciation for these mighty saints and strong leaders in the Church of Jesus Christ. Their contributions have been significant, and they will be missed.

We welcome a new group of bishops to the work and look forward to building a team of leaders that will take us through the next six years. We invite you to pray daily for the new Assembly of Bishops: Eduard Khegay, Jerry Kulah, Paul Lawler, Jonathan Lee, Lyndol Loyd, Carolyn Moore, Luther Oconer, and Mark Webb.

The transition from our current Assembly to our newly elected Assembly will take place on October 31. Current bishops who are not continuing will step down on that date and new bishops will step into place on November 1. The new Assembly appreciates your patience as we pass off responsibilities and learn our new episcopal areas.

The spiritual DNA we hope to carry forward into the next six years is exactly what we experienced in Johannesburg — a culture of high trust, high transparency, a high view of scripture, a firm theological foundation, and a revived commitment to making disciples of Jesus Christ and spreading scriptural holiness across the globe.

In all things may Jesus be praised!

The Assembly of Bishops

A HISTORIC MOMENT FOR THE GLOBAL METHODIST CHURCH ✨

With overwhelming support, the 2026 General Conference has OFFICIALLY ADOPTED the Articles of Faith, affirming our Wesleyan heritage and establishing a shared expression of the faith that unites us in Jesus Christ.

Together, these Articles speak to who we are, what we believe, and the faith we carry forward as one global connection.

May we hold fast to this faith, walk together in the power of the Holy Spirit, and faithfully proclaim Jesus Christ to a world in need of His grace. 🙏🌍

More details, including the full adopted language, will be released soon.

We continue to be blessed with guest pastors bringing us a message grounded on God's Word on Sunday mornings, as we wait for the assignment of a new pastor for our church. Pastor Don Goodenow will preach and administer Communion this Sunday, September 6th, at 10:30. Pastor Goodenow also led our church’s worship service on August 2nd.

Don Goodenow served as a pastor in the UMC from 2015 through 2024, at which time his family and he joined Sherman Methodist Church (Global Methodist Church,) where he remains very active in leadership roles.

Don and his wife, Connie, have been married for 35 years and are parents of three sons. Together, they have sought to raise their family with a strong foundation of taith, encouraging their sons to embrace their calling as future leaders in Christ's Church.
