Oklahoma Indian Missionary Conference
Rio Grande Hispanic Missionary Conference
Medina United Methodist Church first supported these two groups through Wooster District. In 1999 it was decided that MUMC would contribute $500 per year to each of these groups. In 2004, Missions Committee raised the level of support to $1,000 each as a Covenant Relationship.
In addition to annual conferences, the United Methodist Church of the United States has several conferences that for ethnic, geological, economic, or a combination of these reasons, need additional financial aid for their pastors.
A female District Superintendent of the Oklahoma Indian Conference spoke at our church in 1998 while she was in the Wooster District for a District Mission Fair. In 1999, two of our church members visited both the Oklahoma and Rio Conferences which are in Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Northern Mexico.
