April 26, 2020 | On Native Ministries Sunday in The United Methodist Church, your offering empowers Native American pastors, congregations and seminary students all over the United States. Supporting Native ministries is more crucial now than ever during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Oklahoma Indian Missionary Conference has been working in Native communities across the country to provide quick and direct relief to our people in need. We have unique connections far beyond the conference and we are often who Native people turn to for help. We ask this year, that you become our partner and make a donation at www.umc-oimc.org/give-online. The money will be used immediately to support Native communities hit hard by the pandemic.
