Understanding Petition Numbers

___________________________________________________

The gospel call to take the Christian message to the world moves us toward a global understanding of mission and ministry. It is our belief that as The United Methodist Church restructures to meet this call it should remain faithful to its historic and prophetic stands of equality and ethnic/racial inclusion.

Toward this end, we call upon the General Conference to make major efforts to preserve and enhance racial/ethnic diversity within any new structures during and after restructuring.
