Bishop Ward's ePistle for October 17, 2011
Mississippi Conference of the United Methodist Church

 

Dear Friends in the Mississippi Conference,

Today we sponsor, with the Louisiana Conference, the 10-Fold focus on disaster response in the United States through the United Methodist Church.

I hope you will take a moment to click here and visit the website, to be counted, and to post a comment of thanks to the connection of United Methodist people.

We are the only episcopal area with disaster recovery ministries ongoing in three areas -- hurricane in the south, flooding and tornadoes in the west, and tornadoes in the east.

The connection of United Methodist people continues to be with us through The Advance, the only channel of giving in which 100% of every gift goes to the ministry designated by the giver.  

Today is a good day to give thanks for the connection.  It is a joyful thing to be a United Methodist Christian today and every day!

With gratitude for your ministry,

Hope Morgan Ward
