United Methodist Volunteers in mission, southeast jurisdiction - giving Tuesday 2025

If UMVIM, SEJ can raise $20,000 by Giving Tuesday, December 2nd, an extra $10,000 will be awarded by generous donors. We need your help to get there!

Choosing love is hard, especially when conflict is all around us. Somehow Jesus chose love even when the forces of the world turned against him. Choosing love was hard, even for Christ, as we see in the Garden of Gethsemane when Jesus cries out to God in a moment of distress.

Conflict sells--more so than ever before--in today’s world. But what would happen if we stopped, even in moments of doubt, and decided to show a small glimpse of Christ’s love?

During this year’s Giving Tuesday campaign, UMVIM, SEJ is asking you to help us raise $20,000 by December 2nd, 2025 so we can receive an additional $10,000 from a group of generous donors. If we don’t hit our goal, regardless of how close, no matching funds will be awarded.

Why should you give? In addition to supporting UMVIM mission resources, UMVIM has made a commitment to train 100 new mission leaders by the end of 2026. Your gift will help us train, equip, and help propel a new generation of leaders across the world. God calls us into mission because it gives us more opportunities to understand how wide God’s embrace truly is.
