The Rev. Roy Hilburn (Waccamaw Siouan tribe) is especially grateful for Native American Ministries Sunday, April 15. A Native American seminary scholarship made his education possible. Today, he is in his 10th year of ministry at a North Carolina church where membership has multiplied more than fivefold.
On this day, United Methodists celebrate the gifts and contributions made by Native Americans in the church and the community.
The special offering received during the April 15 celebration supports Native American outreach ministries and provides scholarships for United Methodist Native American seminarians.
When our churches support Native American Ministries Sunday, we empower Native American congregations to minister to their communities with the love of Jesus Christ.
