Over the past several years, there has been a lot of discussion in the United Methodist Church around the enforcement of rules in the Book of Discipline. This has led to many people feeling that the UMC should or will split into new denominations due to the lack of consensus at the general conference level. In light of these developments, the Maples leadership team voted to enter the discernment process in July of 2022. Following this, Maples engaged in a series of educational seminars leading up to a straw poll in November of 2022. 35% of the church's congregation voted to remain within the United Methodist Church, and 65% voted to separate. We will hold a final vote sometime in early 2023 following a few more information seminars detailing the financial details of separation and denominational options that available to the congregation. We are open to the place that the Spirit will guide us.
