UM Men approve links with 22 organizations

 

During a May 6 Zoom meeting, the General Commission on UM Men, approved four organizations as affiliate partners, eight organizations as affiliates, and 10 as endorsed organizations.

Affiliate partners are organizations within or attached to the commission with an exchange of funds.

Affiliates have close relationships with the commission, but no funds are exchanged.

Endorsed organizations are ministries and missions the commission recommends to local churches and other UM or ecumenical groups.
