Welcome to the Chicago Northwestern District
Greetings to you on behalf of the 53 local churches, two campus ministries, one seminary, one college and several United Methodist-affiliated healthcare and social service agencies that make up the Chicago Northwestern District. We are one of the most diverse districts in The United Methodist Church and we are stronger for it! We are Filipino, Hispanic, Korean, African American, Vietnamese, Liberian, Caribbean, Indian, Ghanan, Pakistani. We are gay and straight, trans and cis. We have churches that are over 100 years old and churches that just began. In all of this diversity, our unity is not found in uniformity but in Christ Jesus.
Our churches are made up of wonderful people who are on the journey of faith and would love for you to join them. We are committed to deepening our relationship with God and living a life of service and justice. If you are searching for a place to ask questions, to grow in your faith and to worship God, I invite you to one of the United Methodist congregations near you.
Peace be with you this day and every day,
Rev. Brittany Isaac, Chicago Northwestern District Superintendent
