Annual Conference Videos & Photos are available at dscumc.org/ac. Consider using them in the following ways:
- Clergy may need a rest after Annual Conference. Consider using the Bishop’s Episcopal Address as the sermon.
- Host a watch session using the Heat Relief or Immigration presentation recordings, and then talk about how your church might engage in or further support these ministries.
- Want to get everyone fired up about our Methodist roots? Host a watch party and incorporate a trivia game or use Dr. Ashely Boggan’s video as part of a sermon series.
- Share the Mission Project report video with your church so they know about the impact that was made possible by their generous gifts.
- Looking for photos to share in your newsletter? Feel free to download and crop any of the photos from the DSCUMC Flickr account.
- Gain a better understanding of what it is like to be a delegate and what happened during the 2020 - - General Conference in 2024 by watching the delegation report video.

Church Communications Survey
What is your church using for communications (social media, website, newsletters)? Is it free or do you pay for that? Please fill out the survey linked below by July 9 to let us know what your church uses. We’re hoping to see pastor responses too, so if you’re not the pastor please ask them to fill it out too. Thanks!
