From the earliest days of the Methodist movement to now, United Methodists have been change agents, striving to make the world a better place for all people. 

As we live into our Christian heritage -- as well as our Wesleyan lineage -- we bring our unique talents, diversity and commitment to work for global health, education, creation care, child welfare, disaster recovery and countless other efforts.
