God in Love Unites us 

The Cumbria District is encouraging conversations within circuits about the 2019 Methodist Conference Report ‘God in Love Unites us’ concerning marriage and relationships, and the provisional resolutions contained within that report which will be voted on at the April District Synod, and ultimately at the 2020 Methodist Conference. To support the independently facilitated forums within circuits, and more generally for members of congregations, resources are available to help reflection and conversation here....  (where the Report itself and a Connexional Study Guide can be found). 

The Cumbria District Being Inclusive Group has also prepared an Additional
