On Sunday, Oct. 4, 2008, United Methodists will come together to celebrate World Communion Sunday, a time to be in communion with Christians all over the world and to enable us to "press on toward the goal" of serving God in life-changing ministries.
Fifty per cent of the special offering goes to the World Communion Scholarship Program of the General Board of Global Ministries.
