Our History

Many dedicated people in the past had a vision to begin the Georgia Chapter of PAUMCS.  As an organization, the executive committee and others members have served the Georgia Chapter for over 30 years.  These devoted people have given many hours of their time to make the Georgia Chapter of PAUMCS a successful one.

Today… You will find that being a member of  PAUMCS  is a very informative way to communicate with other professionals around our state and nationally.  The networking alone gives you many opportunities to share insights and ideas with others in Church, District, Episcopal and other United Methodist Agency offices.  There are many opportunities for continuing education offered through the yearly retreat and training, as well as the Certification school.
