Energy efficiency and Georgia’s faith community have not always been friends. Fortunately, that’s changing, thanks to an innovative statewide program recently launched by Georgia Interfaith Power & Light. It’s called Power Wise.

In two visioning sessions with North Georgia Conference Connectional Ministries Office, Level Creek UMC leadership was able to determine not only where they were, but also where God was leading the church.

How can congregations pursue international mission opportunities through the UMC? That is a question the North Georgia Conference is seeking to answer.  Bridges of Mission is a new conference initiative that utilizes our connection of churches.

While Georgia ranks near the bottom of all 50 states in terms of dollars spent on mental health per capita, the solution isn’t simply to spend more money. While it is part of the answer, the system of providing care also must change.

Organizers of Beyond These Walls 2010 Mission Conference, planned for Oct. 7-9 at McEachern Memorial UMC in Powder Springs, want to help you transform your congregation and equip members for life-transforming ministry.
