Your impact

Your Story Matters

No gift is too small. No church is too ordinary.

United in Impact is a new campaign in The UMC that celebrates how every gift supporting apportionments helps write a greater story. It highlights the faithful work of churches like yours and shows how God is moving through generosity, service, and shared mission. Your story matters.
