Sunday Fund
“Honor your father and your mother, so you may live long in the land the Lord God has given you." - Exodus 20:12
Our commitment to ministry in the name of Christ echoes our rich faith heritage and especially that of the Methodist movement. For almost 300 years the people called Methodists have been passionate about helping those in need. Like the millions who have gone before us, we hear God's call to serve older adults in the Spirit of Christian love.
