On this Sunday, a special offering is taken. It is given in support of students of various races and ethnicities, to help in achieving their education. The United Methodist Church, the world, and our communities are in a time of transition. Now, perhaps, move than ever, we are being called to extend healing and hope. The world needs these talented, qualified, and diverse students from around the globe–to transform the world, through their witness, energy, love, and friendship.
