Minesota Annual Conference 2023 is under way!

🕺 DANCE BREAK 💃 at #MNUMC

Michael Beck on creating fresh expressions to reach people: “Just listen and just love and serve and build relationships, and see what God does with that. Sometimes a church will emerge, sometimes it won’t. We fail a lot, and then we build upon that and we try new experiments.”

Our Celebration of Life in Ministry service is happening now! Join us on the live stream: facebook.com/MinnesotaUMC/ #MNUMC
