Updated March 22, 2021: The Council of Bishops of The United Methodist Church reached a decision that in the best interest of the church at this time, they would cancel the Special Session of the General Conference which was set for May 8, 2021.
The bishops announced that they will dedicate their regularly scheduled April meeting to conversation based on results of listening sessions that are occurring and discern a possible need for a new timeline leading up to the General Conference 2020 set for August 29 to September 6, 2022, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
