EPWORTH LEAGUE - The Epworth League is a Methodist young adult association for individuals from 18 to 35. It traces back to the founding of the organization by the United Methodist Church's predecessor denomination, the Methodist Episcopal Church, formed in 1889 at Cleveland, Ohio, by the combination of five currently existing young people's organizations. At its conception, the purpose of the League was the promotion of intelligent and vital piety among the young people of the Church: To encourage and cultivate Christ-centered character in young adults around the world through community building, missions, and spiritual growth.
The League takes its name from the village of Epworth in Lincolnshire, England, the birthplace of John Wesley and Charles Wesley. Its members are known as Epworthians.
"Look Up & Lift Up" on their emblem stands for : (KJV Luke 21:28) - And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
