2026 General Conference

Petitions

Petitions for General Conference 2026

The petitions ministry of a General Conference plays a crucial role in the broader narrative of a denomination's history, as it provides a record of the matters that were on the hearts and minds of the church's people at a particular point in its history.


On January 5, 2026, the Petition Submission Portal will open and remain open for four months, closing on May 1, 2026. To help you prepare to submit a petition or be informed about the process, view the resources below to guide you in this work. 

For questions, email petitions@globalmethodist.org.
