Division Directors to Explore New Relationship with General Board of Global Ministries April 29, 2009 by YVETTE MOORE
Women’s Division directors voted to explore a new model of partnership with the General Board of Global Ministries that would transfer oversight of United Methodist Women-supported national mission institutions, relationships with international partners and regional missionaries to the Women’s Division. The 43-2 vote came as directors wrapped up their spring board meeting in Stamford, Conn., April 24-27.
United Methodist women have not had direct oversight of work they support since 1964 when, during the church merger process, the then Board of Missions was restructured and Woman’s Division of Christian Service’s home and foreign field operations were transferred to the board’s national and world mission divisions.
