The United Methodist Church-Episcopal Church dialogue met in person in May to begin strategizing the path toward the full-communion vote at the 83rd General Convention of The Episcopal Church. The United Methodist Church approved the full-communion agreement at its most recent General Conference in 2024.

The dialogue is chaired by the Rt. Rev. Betsey Monnot, Episcopal bishop of Iowa, and Bishop Sandra (Sandy) K. Olewine of the United Methodist Church. Bishop Gregory Palmer, who is retiring, previously served as the co-chair representing the United Methodist Church. In his retirement, Bishop Palmer will continue to serve on the committee.
