Areas of Focus

Disaster Response

Prepare, respond, and recover from disasters in Indiana and beyond. In connection with UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief), we offer training and tools to equip you and your church to be a source of hope in the midst of disaster. Learn more about connecting neighbors, disaster response efforts, giving, and serving.

N

Grants

We offer grants that can make a difference for individuals and people groups that are often underserved. Applications, deadlines, grant reports, previous recipients, and further details are provided here.

N

Justice

United Methodists are known for standing for social justice. We connect with the General Board of Church and Society to provide resources, learning and serving opportunities, and calls to action.

N

Special Sundays

Every year, a number of Sundays are designated as opportunities for recognizing and supporting particular ministries. When you and your church give, you enable vital ministries that change the world. Generosity provides refuge in disaster, promotes peace and justice, empowers self-sufficiency, and shares Christ’s love with people everywhere.

UMVIM (United Methodist Volunteers in Mission)

Offer your skills and talents for Christian service at home and around the world. We provide guidance, organization, and training to those who go on mission trips, minister to the poor, engage in construction projects, participate in community health programs, lead Vacation Bible School, and much more. Project lists, locations, and medical insurance are also available

N

Global Ministries

To connect the Church in mission, we partner with the General Board of Global Ministries, the worldwide mission, relief, and development agency of The UMC. We work with partners and churches in other countries to equip and transform people and places for God’s mission. Learn more about missionaries, global health, and humanitarian relief and recovery.

Ministry Partners

A variety of 501(c)(3)s around the state and throughout the world partner with Indiana UM congregations. We connect these ministries so they can share resources and build relationships. We hope you will offer them your prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. We all work together as the body of Christ to make disciples for the transformation of the world.

About Missions & Justice

We believe God wants to institutionalize a culture of inclusion, diversity, equity, and anti-racism within the congregations and institutions of the United Methodist Churches of Indiana. These values guide our work as we connect local churches and individuals with resources that raise awareness, awaken moral conviction, and inspire missional action and institutional change for the transformation of the world.

Our Goals

Engage

Facilitate connections to understand unique local missions and areas of justice, challenges, and opportunities across the state.

Equip

Develop congregations by providing tools and resources to help them serve their communities well.

Empower

Deploy leaders by organizing training and support for their efforts to do ministry with others — both in and outside the church walls.
