Simplified Structure Guiding Principles

The policies and procedures for First United Methodist Church’s leadership structure are presented for approval by First United Methodist Church – Little Rock Church Conference 2025. 

These were written to ensure that our structure is in line with The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. Under this model, The Leadership Council replaces all administrative committees of FUMC -LR to allow the church to focus more on its mission & ministries. The Leadership Council is a servant/supporting team that works to align all our ministries under a common vision and mission, while also providing resources for our ministry teams as they lead us in God’s vision for our church, community, and world.
