Each month, the NUMC Outreach Team chooses an organization or initiative to support through monetary donations collected weekly. We call this our Mission of the Month. At times, you may hear these missions referred to as the “Advance Specials,” which is the historical term in our church. We use them interchangeably, so whichever term you use will be understood.
GET INVOLVED
Through the Mission of the Month, our Outreach Team highlights and partners with ministries locally, nationally, and internationally to strengthen their work growing God’s kingdom. Our partnerships gained in 2023 were Lahaina UMC in Maui, Family Promise of Bucks County, The Syrian American Medical Association, A Woman’s Place, the Wrightstown Food Pantry, and much more.
July Mission of the Month:
The Mission of the Month (Advance) for July is the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) International Disaster Response and Recovery.
Our offering will help the people of Venezuela affected by the two recent devastating earthquakes which have resulted in 1,500 lives lost so far. Thousands are still missing. More than 770 buildings are partially or totally collapsed.
If you would like to help the people of Venezuela, you can use the blue envelopes located in the pews in the Sanctuary. You can also send a check to Newtown United Methodist Church, 35 Liberty Street, Newtown, PA. Please mark your check “Advance for July.”
