Welcome to umsexualethics.org, a ministry of the

General Commission on the Status and Role of Women

of The United Methodist Church (UMC).

This website addresses the issues of sexual misconduct, abuse, and harassment by those entrusted with ministerial roles in the UMC. This church’s clergy, lay leaders, employees, and members are committed to being agents of God’s justice, mercy, and grace when one of our own sinfully violates another’s sexual well-being.

If you or someone you care about has been sexually abused or harassed by a United Methodist pastor, or a layperson in leadership at a United Methodist church or related agency, we want to support you as you seek justice and healing.
