Where Your Money Goes
All of the proceeds from the summer meal ministry go toward our many missions and ministries. Much of the money goes toward what United Methodists call “apportionments” or “shared ministries”—funds that our congregation sends to the international denomination to help fund important organisations like the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR), one of the first organisations on the ground in many wars and natural disasters.
You can see some of the many missions we support with our meal ministry, either directly or through our denominational connection on our Service page.
