Global Methodist Church

The Global Methodist Church is a religious denomination that was formed in 2022, after a split in the United Methodist Church. The split came after many years of debate within the denomination “...for reasons of conscience regarding a change in the requirements and provisions of the Book of Discipline related to the practice of homosexuality or the ordination or marriage of self-avowed practicing homosexuals as resolved and adopted by the 2019 General Conference, or the actions or inactions of its annual conference related to these issues which follow.”It was decided that congregations with more traditional or conservative views on the issue than the denomination at large be allowed to separate, with a two-thirds affirmative vote by the members.
