MEET THE EMC - The EMC General Board of Christian Education

THE EVANGELICIAL METHODIST CHURCH

We are a global fellowship of Christ-followers with roots in the historic Methodist tradition.

MISSIONS

The EMC denomination is comprised of six "Global Conferences:" USA (the founding conference), Mexico, Myanmar, CFAN (Christ for all Nations), Asia Pacific, and South Africa (affiliated in that order). Each Global Conference follows the EMC Discipline, adjusted as needed to allow for respective national laws and cultural differences. The Articles of Faith are not negotiable. Each Global Conference has its own General Superintendent and is self-governing, self-funding, and self-propagating. (Click this link to read. more on this missiological topic.) The Global Conferences are not dependent upon the USA Conference; rather, we are all interdependent, striving to work in harmony.

MEN'S MINISTRY

Evangelical Methodist Men For Missions (EMMFM) is a dynamic movement of God’s Spirit in the hearts of laymen in our local churches. Through EMMFM, men and their families from all walks of life, find a channel for harnessing and releasing personal skills and abilities in practical, direct missionary involvement. By participating in overseas witness and work teams, they catch new zeal for soul winning at home, as well as abroad. This produces men mobilized for ministry in their local churches.

WOMEN'S MINISTRY

Uniting the women of the Evangelical Methodist Church by promoting The Four-Fold Plan: 1. Continuing organized efforts to develop Christian living and service. 2. Promoting a wider knowledge and interest in both home and foreign missions. 3. Assisting and encouraging the Christian education of our youth. 4. Participating in Christian activities that will strengthen the local church and community.

YOUTH AND CHILDREN

Our Mission: The mission of the General Board of Youth Activities is to equip youth and youth leaders to impact our world for Christ. Our Vision: The vision of the General Board of Youth Activities is to equip youth and youth leaders to impact our world for Christ through the fulfillment of our four core values.

HAGGARD SCHOOL OF MINISTRY

The Haggard School is primarily established to be a more flexible and lower-cost option for those seeking credentials, but is also available to everyone who wishes to pursue a quality Biblical and practical education. In fact, any EMC congregant 18 years of age or older (with a high school diploma or equivalent) may apply to simply audit HSOM courses for “Personal Enrichment.”
