YOUR ANNUAL CONFERENCE |

Portal Power: News
Sure, you can get Yahoo! News from Yahoo!, but Yahoo! won’t tell you what’s happening at your local church and in your annual conference. The UMPortal packs more power because it provides both. Keep up with headlines in the right-hand column throughout the day.
Portal Power: Google Search
Google is a powerful search engine that can bring you information on almost anything. You have instant Google access in the upper right-hand corner of this page. Google is also an action: Have you Googled anything today?
Portal Power: Weather
Want to check weather here, or another spot in the country? Just look for the blank in the upper right-hand corner. Enter the zip code where you are, or where you’re about to travel, and get the forecast right here through the UMPortal.
Portal Power: Resources
Did you know that 64% of American Internet users have gone online for religious or spiritual purposes? There’s tons of stuff out there that can help you learn, teach, grow or lead. The UMPortal highlights some of those materials for you to consider.
Portal Power: FaithTalk
The FaithTalk section is for exploring life, beliefs and meaning within a larger community of faith. Please come and play.
Portal Power: Daily Inspiration
At the bottom of the UMPortal is a small but important section, the Daily Inspiration. You can return to this piece of Scripture or a prayer several times a day to wash away some stress, to commit a verse to memory, or simply to remind yourself of who you are and Whose you are.
