Bishops' Appeals

The Katrina Church Recovery Appeal

Katrina is not over. Please join the efforts to restore our congregations, parsonages and mission facilities.

We mourn with our brothers and sisters their great losses while we embrace this opportunity for United Methodists to show commitment to our faith and to one another. Together we can restore mission and ministry while moving into a strong future. Please open your hearts and your wallets to the Katrina Church Recovery Appeal (#818-001). You donations will help to:

Restore hurricane-damaged United Methodist facilities.

  • Pay salaries for clergy while their congregations cannot do so or until pastors can be reappointed or relocated to another church.
  • Establish new congregations or consolidate existing ones in storm-ravaged areas.
  • Renew church-based community ministries such as day-care centers and feeding programs.
  • Provide worship necessities—Bibles, hymnals, robes and so forth—to churches in need.
