Humanitarian crisis on the southern border

As United Methodists we are called to stand with the vulnerable and hurting in the world. There is a humanitarian crisis on our border with detained children and families. Regardless of political ideology, we are called to be part of responding with grace, compassion, and justice. 

While UMCOR is barred from the facilities that hold migrants, our United Methodist connection continues along the US-Mexico border. In the past three months, UMCOR has delivered 46,128 hygiene kits to six church-run transitional shelters.

The General Board of Global Ministries asks us to respond in multiple ways. 

The best option to help restock UMCOR’s hygiene kit supply is to work with UMCOR directly at https://www.umcmission.org/umcor/serve/relief-supply-network/hygiene-kit or via The Advance at https://advance.umcor.org/p-616-material-resources.aspx.
