UMCOR Sunday is coming

What is UMCOR Sunday? UMCOR Sunday is one of six churchwide Special Sundays with offerings of The United Methodist Church. UMCOR Sunday calls United Methodists to share the goodness of life with those who hurt. Your gifts to UMCOR Sunday lay the foundation for the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) to share God’s love with communities everywhere. The special offering underwrites UMCOR’s “costs of doing business.” This helps UMCOR to keep the promise that 100 percent of any gift to a specific UMCOR project will go toward that project, not administrative costs.


What is UMCOR? UMCOR is the humanitarian arm of The United Methodist Church. UMCOR’s work reaches people in more than 80 countries, including the United States. UMCOR provides humanitarian relief when war, conflict or natural disaster disrupts life to such an extent that communities cannot recover on their own. Learn more at www.umcor.org.


When do we celebrate UMCOR Sunday? United Methodists celebrate UMCOR Sunday on the Fourth Sunday in Lent.

How does The United Methodist Church distribute the offerings received on UMCOR Sunday? The treasurer of the General Council on Finance and Administration remits net receipts, after payment of promotional expenses, to the General Board of Global Ministries for UMCOR administrative and operational expenses.
