Worship Resources for Sunday, May 17 – Transform the World

Suggested Scripture:

• Psalm 96 – Declaring God’s glory among the nations
  
  

Thirty second script to be shared aloud or printed in the bulletin:

Today is Miracle Sunday in The United Methodist Church. We are joining with 30,000 congregations across the denomination to support theological education for clergy in Africa, Europe, and the Philippines.

In the United States, approximately 71% of clergy have earned a Master of Theology. Outside the U.S., fewer than 5% of clergy possess this degree. This disparity is not about calling or competence. It is about access.

Today’s special offering will endow 500 scholarships in perpetuity, ensuring that courageous, well‑prepared leaders can serve in some of the most challenging missional communities around the world.

A video testimony:
Today we hear Philip share about how his ministry in Nigeria is touching lives in powerful ways.

As we listen, let’s remember that our prayers, participation and generosity matter.
