​


Our in-person Mission u will be led by Rev. InSun Lee, South East District Superintendent

I have served for over thirty years in various missional contexts; in Korea, the Philippines, Mozambique, and the United States. I can speak three languages: Korean, Portuguese, and English throughout my missional journey.


I was appointed to the South East District of the Wisconsin Annual Conference as a Superintendent starting on September 15, 2025. I had served the Darlington & Fayette (2021-2025), Tomahawk & Spirit (2017-2021) UMCs. In 2017, I obtained a doctoral degree in ministry from Claremont School of Theology in California, focusing on Women’s leadership in Mozambique. This study is about feminist perspectives to overcome oppressions, motivates to strive for self-development as autonomous agents, encourages to understand the biblical vision of equality, and challenges to cultivate potential women’s leadership.

Adult Curriculum: A Deep Knowing: Experiencing Emmanuel Through Every Part of Our Lives

Picture
This curriculum is designed to help participants take a step back and a closer look at the various ways we see Emmanuel within and around biblical stories. What can it look like to walk with God as people who face adversity, issues of justice, and a heritage of relational and spiritual connections? This curriculum encourages participants to seek out and name the experiences of Emmanuel from biblical times to our present day as we look toward our future in faith. Available on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/1952501407


Reading Program and Mission u 2026

This year Mission u has recommended four books from the Reading Program specifically to enhance your engagement with the 2026 Mission u theme of “Experiencing Emmanuel”. The books are “Don’t Follow Your Heart: Boldly Breaking the Ten Commandments of Self-Worship” by Thaddeus J. Williams, “Our Unforming: De-Westernizing Spiritual Formation” by Cindy Lee, “A Faith of Many Rooms: Inhabiting a More Spacious Christianity” by Debie Thomas and “Freeing Jesus: Rediscovering Jesus as Friend, Teacher, Savior, Lord, Way and Presence” by Diana Butler Bass.
