Your Impact

YOU offer hope

Your generosity on Native American Ministries Sunday works to create a new history - one that respects the culture and loves God.

The Special Sunday offering allows us to collaborate with CONAM ministries, create programs and resources, educate more around Native ministries and support seminary scholarships for United Methodist Native Americans.

Half of collections stay with local ministries in each conference and the other half supports the work of Native American United Methodist ministries nationally.

Visit UMC.org/SSGive to give to Special Sundays. Check out resources.
