Who do you know who is sensing a call to ministry? Who do you see with gifts for ministry who may simply be waiting for the nudge of your invitation?
IGNITE is a gathering in the North Central Jurisdiction for those discerning God’s call to all forms of ministry in The United Methodist Church. It's an opportunity to seek the Holy Spirit's guidance, network with leaders from your conference, and spend time in community with others who are discerning as well. Join us October 22–24, 2027, in Columbus, Ohio, as we explore God’s call, connect with others on the journey, and discover what’s next.
Start thinking now about who you might invite. Sometimes, all it takes is someone who sees the gifts in us and encourages us to take the next step.
