A new “helpline” to support the changing landscape of ministry is now available in West Ohio!

Ministry is changing. While there are many great resources available to assist churches during specific ministry seasons and challenges, leaders often don’t know where to go to access the help. The Ministry Resource HelpLine was created to assist West Ohio’s near 1000 churches by providing friendly support to our congregations who are looking for ministry resources during this season of change, while also responding to emerging needs and trends. If you have questions concerning visioning, coaching, church structure, leadership questions, worship, revitalization opportunities, staffing, new ideas, stewardship, or other emerging needs, please reach out and we will connect your church to helpful solutions. “During times of change and uncertainty, a consistent presence is so important. We want to reassure the churches in the West Ohio Conference that we’re listening and we’re here to support you,” Brad Aycock, Office of Fresh Starts & New Beginnings.

If your church has a question about a specific ministry topic or an emerging ministry related need, we invite you to email the helpline – resources@wocumc.org or call 380.223.9302.

Questions concerning disaffiliation should be given to your District Superintendent or the District Admin.
