Nurturing Children in Evangelism
“… for it is to such as these that the Kingdom of God belongs.”
Ministry with Children
Leadership Ministries of the GBODWe provide Training, Networking, Research, and Resources for supporting and developing leaders in all areas of the life of The United Methodist Church.
We believe that faithful leaders, grounded in Wesleyan tradition and rooted in personal Christian formation, are the driving force in The United Methodist Church.
Whether laity or clergy, disciple-makers working in local congregations, districts, and annual conferences can find the resources they need through Leadership Ministries.
