How do you address preacher of Methodist church?

A "preacher" is not the correct word in describing a United Methodist clergyman. Preaching is just one aspect of what a minister does. If the minister has a doctorate, you would address him Dr. such and such or you can say Rev so and so or "Rev. Dr. If him has a master's, you would address him or her as "Rev" or even "Pastor". Most United Methodist pastors do not like to be address as a preacher. Always keep in mind, that the UMC is a direct offshoot of the Church of England, and that the founder, Rt. Rev John Wesley, was a "high church" Anglican Priest till he died. There was a time when Methodist clergy were very evangelical and wouldn't mind the term "preacher", but that has changed dramatically over the last 100 years!
