Church Discernment

On June 7, 2022 First Church Siloam Springs Church Council unanimously approved a petition to enter a formal 90-day period of discernment. This permits a church to discern whether they wish to remain United Methodist or disaffiliate to unite with another Methodist denomination or to become an independent church. Important documents in relation to this period of discernment are listed below in chronological order. (Click title to view and download)
