United Methodist News Service, the official news agency of the United Methodist Church, offers a wide range of media services through its busy Web news desk – news and feature articles, background information on current issues, weekly digests and commentary, and an extensive photo gallery. A multimedia agency, UMNS provides stories in print, TV/video, audio and Web formats. UMNS is staffed by professional journalists in Nashville, Tenn., and New York City. Established in 1940, UMNS has been given the editorial freedom to cover and report the news of the church in a way that meets the historic standards of freedom of the press in the United States.

The United Methodist New Service offers a variety of free syndication options: RSS feeds, text and image links, as well as a tool allowing you to build a syndication based on your requirements. Each syndication format is updated dynamically, meaning story updates are made in real time on your site as they are posted to umns.umc.org.
