CREATING CHANGE TOGETHER THROUGH CIVIC ENGAGEMENT

Historically the United Methodist Church has been committed to connecting “faith and life, church and society, and justice and peace.”  The General Board of Church and Society has created the document,  “CREATING CHANGE TOGETHER:  A Toolkit for Faithful Civic Engagement.”  The General  Secretary, Susan Henry-Crowe, writes:  “If every United Methodist put their faith into action, just think about the change we could create together.”

Social Principles of the United Methodist Church provides guidelines for our task. Click here to read the 2020 United Methodist Social Principles.

Our Social Principles are grounded in Scripture and provide a foundation and guide for putting our faith into action. Download the Toolkit at https://www.umcjustice.org/documents/119.
