UMCOR has awarded a solidarity grant to the Rio Texas Annual Conference to support their relief efforts in the wake of the flooding of the Guadalupe River. This grant will provide immediate relief to those impacted through Early Response Team deployment, debris removal, distribution of relief supplies and more.

As United Methodists, we are called to embody Christ's love by embracing all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, or country of origin. Our denomination is steadfast in its commitment to hospitality, affirming that immigrants, refugees, and asylees are beloved members of God’s family. We are called to advocate for fair and compassionate treatment of all immigrants and migrants, and to cultivate communities where hospitality and welcome are extended to those in our midst.

UM Agencies

Agencies provide resources and services that equip local congregations and provide a connection for ministry throughout the world. These organizations can be found at all levels of the connection (churchwide, regional and local).

Your Story Matters

No gift is too small. No church is too ordinary.

United in Impact is a new campaign in The United Methodist Church that celebrates how every gift supporting apportionments—no matter the size—helps write a greater story. It highlights the faithful work of churches like yours and shows how God is moving through generosity, service, and shared mission. Your story can inspire others to give, grow, and believe in what we can do together.
