We know that you are reaching out to be the hands and feet of Christ in so many ways. As you journey to show the love of Jesus to others, share your ideas, resources, and stories with us. We are better together!

Collectively we want to share the impact that you and your congregation are making. Think of what the difference we are making across North and South Dakota and the power sharing our collective efforts, we are making disciples and making difference for Jesus!

We call this effort the COVID Compassion Campaign: Be the Light, Live Hope! There are three areas that are part of the campaign making masks, feeding our neighbor, and acts of compassion. Read all of the details here.

Already we have reports about how you are reaching out by sewing 250 masks, feeding 100 families, and showing compassion by phoning more than 1,000 people each week. View the details here.

We urge you to encourage and challenge your congregation to participate in this effort to collectively make a difference. We ask you to share these stories, examples, and images with us through texting, 605-770-8540,  email: dakumcom@dakotasumc.org,  or share with us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Click here for a form to share your stories or measurements of impact. As we celebrate the light of resurrection and a hope that the grave could not contain, we look forward to lifting up and celebrating how we as Dakotas United Methodists have made a difference in the lives of our neighbors.
