UMCOR Sunday seeks to increase awareness and support for the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR). Gifts given on UMCOR Sunday play a vital role in enhancing the church's global humanitarian response because these funds cover UMCOR's administrative costs. This support ensures that 100% of donations given to UMCOR throughout the year can be directed toward on-the-ground relief and recovery efforts, allowing UMCOR to effectively respond to crises and provide assistance where it's needed most.
By investing in UMCOR's operations, we empower the church to mobilize resources quickly and efficiently, making a meaningful impact in communities affected by disaster and hardship around the world. Your donation helps us continue this vital ministry.
We invite you to explore the complete set of ready-to-use resources designed to help your church celebrate UMCOR Sunday. These materials highlight how we give, why we give, and the impact of our connectional efforts. All resources are available in digital format, allowing you to choose the format that best suits your church's needs. Be sure to check out the planning calendar to help you plan!
This ministry is achieved exclusively through your generosity. Last year, your generosity delivered almost 2 million dollars in support of UMCOR’s work to alleviate human suffering and advance hope and healing through these ministries.
