Youth Game Day - May 9th Visit UMY Youth

New Section Added ..... In order to provide addtional resources to churches within the United Methodist Church, we have added a new section under District Offices. This section allows our member churches to access downloadable resources to help them in running and maintaining their organization. Go to Winchester District Resource Page .

As early as November 27, 1867 the Winchester District was a part of the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The Winchester District became a part of the Virginia Conference on October 16, 1940. The Winchester District is composed of city, country and rural areas.

The Winchester city area retains an identity with the Civil War. Its local battlefields noted by history that the city of Winchester changed hands more than 52 times during the Civil War. The area had no large cities, just small to medium towns which until recently hardly any traffic lights. Its life styles encompassed horse country, farmlands, orchards (apple and peach) and beef, dairy and hog farms. Throughout the District, including Loudoun, Warren, Fauquier, Clarke, Shenandoah, Winchester and Frederick Counties, the area’s rich history and historical landmarks are celebrated in a variety of ways, including parades and festivals.

We envision avenues of ministries that need to be facilitated with prophetic openness. The long-term vision is to build new churches and new ministries since the field is wide-open and far stretching. The field is ready for harvest with more developing communities at hand!

Won't you join us, and claim your right to God's Glorious Grace!
