Love Offering
Each year, churches in the Minnesota Annual Conference take a Love Offering for missions. The offering is brought to annual conference session—a gathering of United Methodist clergy and laity from across the state. The theme of the 2025 Annual Conference session —which will take place June 11-13 at the River’s Edge Convention Center in St. Cloud—is “Created for Love.” Our Love Offering this year will help us put love into action for our neighbors around the world. The funds from this year’s offering will go to Africa University, the Immigration Law and Justice Network, OC Ministries, and Midwest Mission.
