The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas is committed to providing funding for Laity and Clergy training in specialized areas of ministries such as Music, Youth Ministry, Spiritual Direction, Christian Education, as well as other professional fields of study.
The Clergy Growth and Renewal Fund has been established by The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas to provide financial support for clergy in the Arkansas Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church to experience events that promote personal or spiritual growth and perfecting professional skills. These funds are available to Elders, Deacons, and Local Pastors under appointment.
The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas recently opened an office in Northwest Arkansas to allow more access to the Foundation for those churches in the region.
