At this year's Dakotas Conference of The United Methodist Church Annual Conference, Dr. Alisha Vincent, the Foundation’s Vice President, offered a workshop titled “Connect to Why and Ignite a Culture of Generosity.” The workshop reached nearly 100 leaders from across the Dakotas.

The workshop helped participants explore how connecting people to their deep sense of purpose transforms giving from a mere transaction into a life-changing act of discipleship. As a Foundation, we love coming alongside churches with practical education and training—through workshops, coaching, and learning opportunities—to help cultivate a healthy culture of generosity.

Minnesota friends, you can connect with Alisha and our team June 16–18 at your Minnesota Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church Annual Conference in St. Cloud. Stop by our booth to say hello, learn more about our education and training opportunities, and discover how the Foundation can be a resource for your congregation’s ministry and mission.

On this Memorial Day, we remember and honor the sacrifices of all the men and women who have served our country, especially those who laid down their lives in service. We give thanks for their courage and sacrifice. We also remember the families and communities who have carried grief and love side by side.

As the Dakotas | Minnesota Methodist Foundations, we join our churches in praying for comfort for those who mourn, strength for those who serve, and wisdom for us all as we seek to be people of peace.

“No one has greater love than to give up one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13.

We invite you to pause today—offer a prayer, observe a moment of silence, or reach out to someone who is remembering a loved one—and to carry that remembrance into acts of kindness in the days ahead.
