In The United Methodist Church, Golden Cross Sunday is one of five opportunities for special annual conference offerings. Financial gifts benefit health and welfare ministries in the conference. On Golden Cross Sunday, God works through our prayers and support in acts of mercy to bless the lives of individuals of all ages and at all stages of life.
Each year, portions of the donations to Golden Cross Sunday offerings fund grants for deserving workers in senior-serving institutions to further their service among older adults. Learn more here.
HOW TO GIVE: Write a check to your local church and write, “Golden Cross Sunday offering” in the memo line. Churches can give through the NIC Apportionment process.
