| Native Ministries in the Alaska Missionary Conference | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Your offering on Native American Ministries Sunday will support Native ministries right here within the Alaska Missionary Conference! Proceeds from Native Ministry Sunday offerings help conferences, provide educational assistance for Native Americans in the form of scholarships, and assist with the establishment of urban Native ministries. In Alaska, travel is often a hindrance to providing ministry. In the AMC offerings are used to send mission workers to and from villages not accessible by car. In some areas, we help provide a United Methodist presence and children's educational experiences where there is no United Methodist congregation. |
