SUNDAY FUND
"Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life."” ~Proverbs 16:31
Our commitment to ministry in the name of Christ echoes our rich faith heritage. For 58 years we have been passionate about helping those in need. We pray that you will partner with us in hearing God's call to serve older adults in the Spirit of Christian love.
WHAT IS THE SUNDAY FUND?
A benevolence fund created to meet the financial burdens of elders who live on one of our twelve campuses across Mississippi. These are elders who have outlived their resources and can no longer afford the cost of housing or care. No matter how much someone plans and saves, sometimes those plans are dramatically altered by unexpected events which produce overwhelming financial and emotional obstacles.
WHO BENEFITS?
Elders living at an MSS facility who have outlived their financial resources and can no longer afford the cost of housing or care. Your gift to The Fund helps preserve the dignity of elders who must ask for help.
IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT THE SUNDAY FUND
100% of the money donated to The Sunday Fund is used to support elders.Every year there is an increase in both the number and size of Sunday Fund requests. Your help is crucial to our ability to keep pace with the growing needs of those we serve.
Without Sunday Fund grants, there are men and women who could no longer maintain their residency on one of our campuses, a place they have come to call home.
The level of assistance we can offer elders is directly related to the balance available in The Fund.
MSS does NOT receive an apportionment from the Methodist Conference.
