Native American Ministries Sunday

In 2022, congregations across the United Methodist church gave more than $426,000 to develop and strengthen Native American ministries in the Annual Conferences, Native American rural, urban, reservation ministries and communities. Your donation provided development, implementation, and assessment of a higher education recruitment/retention for Native American clergy. Native American Ministries Sunday is scheduled for April 23, but you can hold it on any Sunday that works for your congregation.
