Martin is Mission
Global Missions
Our financial support of the United Methodist Committee On Relief (UMCOR) makes it possible for people and the resources they need to be ready for any national or international disaster. Special kits are collected and sent to refugee camps, temporary shelters and disaster relief centers worldwide.
We share in mission and ministry with United Methodists around the world through our support of the General Board of Global Ministries. A part of our offering each week, goes to support the General Board, our missionaries and the work they do in the name of Jesus Christ in all corners of the world. To learn more about Global Mission opportunities please visit our global partners.
