Super proud to be the home district of Nebraska Methodist College ❤️

Across the U.S., United Methodist-related schools are connected by a shared mission, history, and values that shape learning and leadership. From the Robinson School Puerto Rico to the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington, these 104 institutions form a network committed to academic excellence, access, and service.

Together, they foster inclusive, diverse communities that prepare students to engage thoughtfully with the world. Grounded in pillars like academic freedom, social justice, intercultural learning, and interfaith engagement, this connection strengthens collaboration and amplifies impact.

We need your help - help us build our audience by inviting people to follow this page.
Who to invite? Members of UMC congregations in Eastern Nebraska, people who live in the area, UMCs who live elsewhere and folks who just generally might appreciate the content are all possibilities!
It also helps for our congregations to give us a follow so we can tag them in our posts.
Thank you!!
