As an organization created to support and empower individuals who are employed by United Methodist churches, districts, conferences, extension ministries, and general agencies, it is first important to understand the beliefs of the denomination itself.
The mission of the United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. We share many common beliefs with other denominations, while also having a unique heritage and areas of emphasis.
While operating under the belief system and adhering to the United Methodist Book of Discipline, PAUMCS has their own Constitution and Bylaws which were last upadated and approved in 2024.
The Professional Administrators of United Methodist Connectional Structure (PAUMCS) accepts The Book of Discipline and The Book of Resolutions of the United Methodist Church as law and policy for our work and ministry in The United Methodist Church. We subscribe to a Code of Ethics, which affirms these, and seek to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ our Lord in our daily work.
Our Code of Ethics are currently under review, as we update the language to match the most recent Book of Discipline. This document will be published here once it is complete.
