Never allow small denominations to shake you and your faith.

This was an issue seen by the Methodist Church President Rev. Dr. Epineri Vakadewavosa while visiting 30 Methodist division around the country.

Rev. Dr. Vakadewavosa says some small denominations and ministries push their way through and create conflicts in some communities and villages.

He adds some even falsify that they work hand in hand with the Church and claim the approval of the village chiefs.

We do not allow or give way for them to use the Methodist Church as a platform to gain popularity. They are found in cheap and sensitive principles that only bring about separation and discrimination.

He adds these small denominations and ministries will only thrive in places where church leadership is weak.

Rev. Dr. Vakadewavosa is urging church ministers to engage the congregation to actively participate in the learning of the Gospel of Jesus.

This was part of the deliberations at the Annual Methodist Church conference which is being held throughout this week.
