On October 6th, SUMC will join with other UM congregations to observe World Communion Sunday. This observance celebrates the universal and inclusive nature of the United Methodist Church. A special offering will be collected to fund scholarships and leadership training programs for young scholars and seminarians. Half the proceeds will be allocated to the World Communion Sunday Scholars program administered by the General Board of Global Ministries. The remaining half will be used for the Ethnic Scholarship Program and the Ethnic In-Service Training Program, which are administered by the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry. You can donate to UMCOR Sunday through your regular offering or eGiving (please designate to World Communion).
