The Global Methodist Church welcomes clergy and congregations who desire to join a movement rooted in scriptural holiness, connectional support, and a shared mission to make disciples of Jesus Christ. Whether you are a clergy member seeking transfer or ordination, or a local church looking to become part of the Global Methodist Church, this page provides access to the necessary application forms and guidance. The application process includes spiritual and doctrinal affirmations, background checks, and appropriate references, ensuring alignment with the Church’s beliefs and practices. These application links are for U.S. applicants only. If you are applying from outside the United States, please email applications@globalmethodist.org for further instructions.
To join the Global Methodist Church, the following motion must be adopted by a simple majority at a congregational meeting: “I move that _____________ Church become a member congregation of the Global Methodist Church, that it affirms and endorses the doctrinal standards (Part One), Social Witness (Part Two), and church governance of the Global Methodist Church as set forth in its Transitional Book of Doctrines and Discipline, and agrees to be accountable to such standards, witness, and governance. Our leadership and trustees are authorized to take all actions necessary to implement this motion.” A person authorized by the church must then complete and submit a digital church application. As part of completing the digital church application, you must upload the minutes of the meeting at which the motion above was adopted. Church applications can only be submitted using the digital church application. If you have questions about the church application process, please email applications@globalmethodist.org.
