UMCOR Sunday (Formerly One Great Hour of Sharing) - Supporting the operations behind the ministry of UMCOR

Special Sundays are set aside each year to deepen the connection between the local church and ministries worldwide. Individuals and congregations are encouraged to support the churches’ collective efforts through an offering. We invite you to continue supporting the vital work of the Special Sundays.

United Methodist Churches traditionally observe UMCOR Sunday on the fourth Sunday in Lent. However, our congregation will celebrate on March 22.

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 by covering UMCOR's administrative costs. This support ensures that 100% of donations to UMCOR throughout the year can be directed toward on-the-ground relief and recovery efforts, enabling UMCOR to respond effectively 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.

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.
