Sometimes history holds the key to the future.

The TWKUMC Archives is here to help you discover and preserve that history.

We serve as a resource to individuals, local churches, and conference leadership.

We collect, preserve, and maintain the historical records of the conference and its antecedents.

We are also available to help churches:

  • Research, preserve, record, and celebrate their history.
  • Establish retention schedules and processes for both paper and digital documents.
  • Rescue records, photographs, and artifacts from environmental damage and wear.
