Native American Ministries Sunday
Your impact

YOU offer possibility

Your generosity on Native American Ministries Sunday works to create a new history - one that respects the culture and loves God.

The Special Sunday offering allows collaboration with CONAM ministries, creates programs and resources, increases education about Native ministries and supports scholarships for Native Americans pursuing ordained or licensed ministry.

Half of contributions stay with local ministries in each conference and the other half supports Native American scholarships, programs and initiatives.
