United Methodist voters around the globe have ratified worldwide regionalization — a package of constitutional amendments aiming to put the denomination’s different geographical regions on equal footing.
In addition to regionalization, United Methodist voters ratified three other amendments to the denomination’s constitution including changes that make clear the church’s belief that God’s love is for all people.
United Methodist Council of Bishops President Tracy S. Malone urged her fellow bishops to “embody the radical love of Jesus” at a time when some misuse Jesus’ name to justify hate, division and threats to human dignity.
