A Justice Seeking Church

The report from the Walking with Micah project, A Justice-Seeking Church was taken to the Methodist Conference this year. This report outlines why we do justice, what we do, and how we do it, all as part of the Methodist Church. Join a webinar, listen to the audio version and read a summary of the report here.

The Methodist Conference has overwhelmingly voted to recommit the Methodist Church to being a Justice-seeking Church. The report received by the Conference hopes to encourage more Methodists in acting for justice, along with their local communities, and to focus efforts on contributing to change in key areas including poverty, refugees, the environment, discrimination and peace.

The report is the result of a two-year process of conversation and listening. This involved looking at how Methodists have worked for justice throughout their history and what is being done now, as well as hearing people’s experiences of injustice. The report involved churches, young people, communities and schools sharing their visions of what a just world looks like.
