SPECIAL SUNDAYS REMINDER

When we give from the hear, we receive unexpected blessings – especially the joy of making a difference in someone’s life.  The United Methodist Church has six annual offerings to share beyond our regular gifts through churchwide Special Sundays.  While you can designate any Sunday to take these offerings, below are the upcoming suggested dates for two.

World Communion Sunday – October  6, 2013

The World Communion Sunday offering funds racial-ethnic World Communion scholarships, with at least one-half of the annual amount reserved for ministries  beyond the United States.  Donations also provide for U.S. ethnic scholarship and ethnic in-service training programs.  To learn more about World Communion Sunday  CLICK HERE

United Methodist Student Day – November 24, 2013

Gifts on United Methodist Student Day support UM scholarships and the UM Student Loan Fund.  Annual conferences participating in the rebated program may award one or more merit scholarships to UMC students who reside in the conference and who attend a UM related college or university.  To learm more about United Methodist Student Day CLICK HERE
