Stay Informed
Got questions? Seek out a a member of our Tucker First UMC lay leadership (church members in leadership positions). Stay informed by looking here for meeting minutes and other information of interest to our congregation. Everyone is invited to the Church Council and Council on Ministries meetings.
Each year, clergy and non-clergy (lay people) meet together for Annual Conference to worship, fellowship, and conduct the business of the North Georgia Conference: adopting future goals, programs and budgets; ordaining clergy members as deacons and elders; and electing delegates to Jurisdictional and General Conferences. Find out more about the 2011 North Georgia Annual Conference at www.ngumc.org/ac2011.
Meeting Minutes - all files are in .pdf format unless noted otherwise. The posting of minutes usually is one month behind because the committees approve their previous month's meeting minutes during the current month's meeting. If you have a question, ask the committee chairperson.
Council on Ministries - meets every other month during the months Church Council does not meet. 2011 schedule: Feb 6, Apr 10, Jun 12, Aug 11, Oct 9 and Dec 11 at 4:30pm in Jenkins Hall.

The United Methodist Church is intentionally decentralized, but is also connectional. Groups of churches in a geographic area are organized to form a district. Each district is led by a district superintendent, an elder appointed by the bishop. Tucker First UMC is part of the Atlanta-Emory District, which is the largest district in the North Georgia Conference.
