The Lewisburg District is one of seven districts in the Susquehanna Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church. We are home to over 100 United Methodist Congregations in Mifflin, Juniata, Snyder, Union, Northumberland, Lycoming, Montour, Columbia, and Luzerne Counties.
Rev. Larry L. Leland, Jr., our District Superintendent since 2016, serves as a member of the Bishop’s appointive cabinet and as the Chief Missional Strategist for the district. Along with Assisting Elders, Rev. David Dearing, and Rev. Jennifer Parks-Snyder, as well as Administrative Assistant Debbie Ackley, the leadership of the district seeks to extend the mission of the Susquehanna Conference in our region. The mission highlights the importance to Grow, Equip, and Connect within the home churches in the Lewisburg District.
