Order of the Flame: 20th Anniversary Celebration

WME-LogoGraphic-ColorWorld Methodist Evangelism is excited to host its 20th Order of the Flame invitational evangelism conference this spring, March 14-17 at Epworth by the Sea, St. Simon’s Island, Georgia.

This unique gathering will include a new incoming class of members as well as current members who are alumni of previous gatherings. Invitations have been sent and it is with pleasure that we watch the responses arrive.

Pastors and their spouses have taken part in the annual Order of the Flame conference from across Wesleyan Methodist denominations: Nazarene, United Methodist, AME, Free Methodist, AME Zion, Wesleyan, Christian and Missionary Alliance, and CME are some of the families represented every year.

For the 20th anniversary Order of the Flame, returning members can expect to pay only for registration, travel, and lodging.

This year the conference will feature plenary sessions as well as separate tracks for new and returning members.

Holy Communion is celebrated daily in the chapel.
