Welcome to the Web site for the New England Chapter of the Methodist Federation for Social Action. We endeavor to be the prophetic voice that proclaims God's justice and shalom in our denomination, mindful of the plumb line set among us (Amos 7:8). Through our words and actions, and working primarily through the ministries of the United Methodist Church, we witness to the world the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Our Mission
As a chapter of MFSA, we embrace the priorities that the national MFSA board has set for the coming year. A particular witness in our chapter is the New England Declaration and the New England Declaration Network of signers and supporters. We welcome Methodists from New England and all annual conferences to sign this document as a testament of a spirit-led conviction in the full inclusion of GLBT persons in our denomination and in the holiness of committed relationships whether they be heterosexual or homosexual.
