Human Relations Sunday

In Worship: It’s Human Relations Day – one of six churchwide Special Sundays with offerings of our United Methodist Church. Human Relations Day calls United Methodists to recognize the right of all God’s children in realizing their potential as human beings in relationship with one another. Our special offering will be given (in equal amount) to the United Methodist ministries serving our neighbors in the greater Oklahoma City Area:  Skyline Urban Ministry, Project Transformation, Neighborhood Services Organization, Circle of Care, and Criminal Justice and Mercy Ministries.
