Churches across East and West Ohio will have the opportunity to apply for the new Ignite Ohio Grants, a collaborative initiative designed to spark innovation, strengthen communities, develop leaders, and launch new ministries.

We believe God is calling United Methodist churches across Ohio to look beyond their walls, engage their communities, and create new pathways for people to experience Christ's love. 

Whether you're exploring a new ministry idea, dreaming about a Fresh Expression, reimagining your church property, investing in emerging leaders, or launching a community-focused initiative, Ignite Ohio is here to help move great ideas into action. 

Need help shaping your vision? We've got that too. Join a Whiteboard Session, explore the Dreaming New Possibilities Guide, and start imagining what God might do next through your church. 

Dream Bigger. Ignite Innovation. Reach New People.

All Information about the grants (along with a printable handbook) and the Ignite Ohio Grant Application link can be found here.
