Each y<\/span>ear, the Methodist Church holds an Easter Offering dedication service. This tradition dates back to 1883, when women in Manchester collected \u00a332 for missionary work overseas from ‘Christmas pennies’ at family gatherings on Christmas Day. In March 1884, the London Districts distributed Easter envelopes and collecting bags asking for a penny a head, and collected around \u00a3100.\u00a0In 1900, Women\u2019s Work raised \u00a31,655 for the work of overseas missions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since then, each successive Methodist women\u2019s movement has encouraged donations in support of God\u2019s mission. Recently, Methodist Women in Britain (supported by the Global Relationships team) have produced an annual service of dedication, often used widely around the Connexion as a circuit service.<\/span><\/p>\n

All the money raised<\/span>\u00a0through the Easter Offering goes to the World Mission Fund of the Methodist Church in Great Britain for work in our Partner Churches around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2023, collections from Easter Offering services raised over \u00a3190,000, thanks to the generosity of Methodists.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

We thank Methodist Women in Britain for running this appeal, and you for making a difference by contributing to God\u2019s mission in this way.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
