UMC Informational Meetings

As a follow-up to our spring conversations, Tucker First heldd three informational sessions on the options available to congregations in the midst of the ongoing denominational divide regarding the ordination and marriage of LGBTQIA+ clergy and congregants. These sessions were intended to provide clear information about the policies and procedures laid out by the North Georgia Annual Conference and the full range of possibilities for Tucker First as a local congregation.
 
  • August 25th – Rev. Dr. Byron Thomas, District Superintendent for the Central South District, Head of the Clergy Delegation to General Conference
  • September 1st – Dan Parr, President of the Wesleyan Covenant Association (WCA) for North Georgia, North Georgia Jurisdictional Conference Delegate, and Lay Member at Dahlonega United Methodist Church
  • September 8th – Summary and Next Steps

UMC Affiliation information

​In an effort to provide transparency and education regarding the current denominational issues, a committee of church leaders has developed an informational document in response to some of your concerns and frequently asked questions. This document will be followed up in the coming weeks with a church-wide survey on these matters. We hope you will take time to carefully read through this document in preparation for answering the survey questions.  
 
We are grateful that even in the midst of these uncertain times Tucker First continues to be engaged in vibrant and life-giving ministry. May we trust God to continue this good work and may we pray and discern together as a church in love and grace for one another.
