Council of Bishops May 2023 Meeting

Rev. Greg Bergquist will attend the Council of Bishops meeting in May 2023. The Council generally meets twice a year with additional meetings as needed. Together, as the Council, they provide guidance in carrying out the church’s mission in the world as well as sharing in teaching, equipping and advocating for justice and unity. Additionally, the Council strives toward relationships with churches of Methodist and other traditions through ecumenical partnerships. The Council of Bishops also assigns bishops to the governing boards of general agencies and other ministerial bodies. The Council is led administratively by an executive committee, which includes a president and other officers. Every four years, the Council selects one bishop to present the episcopal address at General Conference.
