Special Sundays Unite United Methodists

Each year, six Sundays are set aside to bring United Methodists together in support of ministries that make a difference in communities near and far. On each of these Sundays, local churches receive a special offering that strengthens the wider church’s work in relief and recovery efforts, education, advocacy, and community development.

When we give together, we put our faith into action and reach further than any one congregation could on its own. That is the heart of United in Impact, the initiative that brings all United Methodist connectional giving under one shared vision. Together, we are united in purpose and greater in impact.

Each Special Sunday page is organized in three simple steps to help explore each ministry:

1) LEARN what each Sunday celebrates and supports; 2) EQUIP your church to get involved and 3) SHARE stories of faith and action.
