This Week in Texas Methodist History February 11

Annual Meeting Registration Now Open

The Texas United Methodist Historical Society is a membership organization devoted to the historical interests of all the annual conferences of the United Methodist Church with congregations in Texas. 
There are seven annual conferences including the Central Texas, New Mexico, North Texas, Northwest Texas, Oklahoma Indian Mission, Rio Texas, and Texas Annual Conferences in the TUMHS.

Each year the TUMHS holds an annual meeting.  The program consists of scholarly presentations, tours of historic Methodist sites, and the presentation of awards for achievement in writing local church histories and student essays.  

This year's annual meeting will be held Thursday April 5 through Saturday April 7 in El Paso.  The host church is Trinity-First UMC, one of the most historic churches in the entire Southwestern region of the United States.   A special attraction will be a celebration of the history of Lydia Patterson Institute which has been serving students for more than a century. 

The theme of the meeting is Methodism on the Border.   Registration materials may be found on the New Mexico Conference site.   http://www.nmconfum.com/event/texas-um-historical-society-annual-meeting-el-paso/

Looking forward to seeing you in El Paso.
