Global Ministries, the worldwide mission and development agency of The United Methodist Church, with the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR), invites churches and individuals to celebrate Human Relations Day on Sunday, January 15, 2023.

One of the Special Sunday Offerings of The United Methodist Church, this collection benefits neighborhood ministries through community developers, supports community advocacy through United Methodist Voluntary Services and works with at-risk teens through the Youth Offender Rehabilitation Program.

Global Ministries connects the church in mission through four mission priorities: evangelism and church revitalization, missionaries, global health and humanitarian relief and recovery.

100% of gifts to Global Ministries and UMCOR share the love of God with those in need. Review resources for Human Relations Day here. Donate to Human Relations Day here.
