Free Methodists want to introduce people to Jesus (Evangelism),
change the world one person at a time (Discipleship), and alleviate suffering (Loving our Neighbour).
94% of our Ministry Plan Budget goes towards the Leadership
Ministry and all the support staff that makes ministry possible.
Leadership Ministry includes the NLT, BOA, MEGaP, SCOD,
Admin and Support Services, Church Health Coaches, Networks, Task Forces and all our Support Staff that help us make a difference in our communities.
Our Giving Streams builds on the CORE Ministry Budget (Leadership and Support Staff) that allows for targeted ministry projects (click on each to expand).
