Connectional Ministries

The Office of Connectional Ministries seeks to be a resource center for our conference-wide ministries in our local churches, districts, organizations, and ministries as they work to fulfill God’s mission.

As a conference, we are connected in doing mission and ministry as called by God in making disciples of Jesus Christ. We fulfill this mission in the North Alabama Conference through discovering, developing, and deploying spiritual leaders who will partner with God in the mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

As tasked by the Book of Discipline ¶608, Connectional Ministries will guide the mission and ministries of the North Alabama Annual Conference by:

  • Ensuring the stewardship of the vision of the annual conference
  • Creating and nurturing relationships and connections among the local church, district, annual conference, and the general Church ministries
  • Envisioning ministries necessary to live out the mission of the church through the annual conference
  • Aligning of resources of the conference with its mission
  • Providing leadership development for the conference
