Northern Illinois Conference
While as United Methodists we belong to a worldwide denomination, we also belong to the Northern Illinois Conference, which includes 400 churches and 125,000 members. It is through Conference missions that our ministry expands to the nation and the world. It is also the Conference that organizes high quality training opportunities that helps us become more effective in our mission and ministries.
The purpose of the Northern Illinois Annual Conference is to make disciples for Jesus Christ by equipping its local faith communities for a ministry of witness, justice, hope, and love, and by providing a connection for mission beyond the congregation; all to the glory of God.
