Super Bowl Challenge
Cheering on the home team in the Super Bowl is becoming a tradition in Missouri, and there’s no shortage of fans among the United Methodists in the state. Once again this year the Missouri Conference is participating in a food drive challenge with the opposing United Methodist Conference. See the details of how your local church can be part of the fun and help eliminate hunger at [link removed] [link removed].

Radicle Methodism: Back to Our Roots
A New Reource from GCAH
The UMC is at a crucial turning point, where we must look back to our heritage in order to move forward as a connected people. “Radicle Methodism: Back to our Roots” is a free four-part in-depth history course, complete with videos, discussion questions, and suggested readings. The goal of this course from the General Council on Archives and History is to help annual conferences, local congregations, and individual United Methodists do just that. They want to remind everyone what it means to be Wesleyan, to be Methodist, and to be United Methodist. You can find all of the resources [link removed] here. It includes a Leader Guide, Participant's Guide, and Primary Source Guide. This four-module course would be great to use as a new member resource, adult confirmation, Sunday School, or small group study. Access a preview of the course here in the [link removed] introduction video. Enroll in the course at [link removed] [link removed].
