Board of Ordained Ministry

God’s call never ceases, and the need for Christian leaders never ends. The United Methodist Church is focused on cultivating a “new generation of Christian leaders who commit boldly to Jesus Christ and are characterized by intellectual excellence, moral integrity, spiritual courage, and holiness of heart and life,” and a sense of vocational fulfillment.  If you are exploring a call to ministry, visit the General Board of Higher Education & Ministry web site. 

The West Virginia Conference Board of Ordained Ministry (BOOM) helps guide people called to ministry on their path to becoming an ordained minister of the United Methodist Church.
