Peace with Justice Sunday is one of six churchwide Special Sundays designated to support ministries and causes important to the entire United Methodist Church. One this day, we come together to support ministries that work for peace and fairness around the world. It’s a day when the church speaks out against violence and inequality and renews its commitment to be peacemakers—just as Jesus taught.

There will be donation envelopes in the Wesley room if you would like to make a donation.

For the month of May we will be collecting donations for Wildthunder, a local nonprofit that is state and federally permitted to rehabilitate wildlife and a state licensed animal welfare establishment and animal rescue. Their mission is to help injured and orphaned wildlife and to rehabilitate and return them back into the wild whenever possible.
