United Methodist Marriage and Family Ministries Directory Updated 12/30/2017 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE Our vision is for each home to become a "haven of blessing and peace" 1 in which individuals are nourished to grow to their full potential. You may call on us for leadership and/or consultation for strengthening your ministries to couples and families. Most of us are United Methodists, but a few from other denominations have been included because of their experience with and willingness to work with United Methodists. New names will be added as information comes to us. People within the same or neighboring annual conferences could explore opportunities to work together to strengthen marriage and family ministries in their area. I also maintain a separate list of people interested in marriage ministries who do not consider themselves leaders or resource people — or who do not want to receive requests at this time, but do want to know more about marriage and family ministries in our church. Please send me names and contact information for other people to be added to either of these lists (See my contact information below). An alphabetical list at the end of this document provides contact information for the programs and organizations named herein. Two of these, Better Marriages 2 and Marriage Encounter/Engaged Encounter United Methodist, historically have had a working relationship with the United Methodist General Board of Discipleship (now called Discipleship Ministries). Others have been recommended by various United Methodist individuals and/or churches. Most are described in greater detail in a variety of “Best Practices and Recommended Resources” articles posted at www.marriagelovepower.net and which may be searched for by title or topic at http://www.umcdiscipleship.org/leadership- resources/intergenerational-family-ministries.
