Meet Our Elders – Kanesha Hudson – Annual Conference 2021

May 15, 2021

Upon completing the Ministerial Candidate process and undergoing extensive discernment with mentors and the Ministerial Education & Guidance Board, the Free Methodist Church consecrates this process through ordination – the recognition of God’s calling in their lives for His work in the church. We welcome these incoming ordained Elders and pray for God’s blessing in their ministries.

– Annual Conference 2021

What is Annual Conference? It’s a time for all of us to celebrate what God has done throughout our churches, remember those who have gone before us, and consecrate God’s calling on the lives of new church leaders across Southern California. It’s our opportunity to remember that “It’s good to belong.”

Fresh Oil, Fresh Anointing: Breaking Spiritual Bondage with Bishop Kenny Martin
Fresh Oil, Fresh Anointing: Breaking Spiritual Bondage with Bishop Kenny Martin

Bishop E. Kenneth Martin delivers a prophetic challenge to the Free Methodist Church, confronting deep-rooted issues of spiritual bondage, systemic oppression, and the church’s complacency. “Churches are dying in a cage,” he declares, calling for a radical shift in how the church addresses:

– Spiritual chains of sin and oppression
– Historical and ongoing impacts of slavery
– Diversity, equity, and inclusion challenges
– The church’s reluctance to engage difficult conversations
– Breaking free from “nasty” church politics and self-serving leadership

“This is a season of manifestation,” Martin says, urging a breakthrough from 2025 to 2035 that will transform the church locally and globally.
