Resources and Publications

We’re blessed to be able to produce and share resources that showcase the many places where God is alive and at work in the world.

Please use in church services and spread far and wide! 

UnitingWorld Sunday

UnitingWorld Sunday is an inspiring introduction to our work and international partners. Updated annually, it’s also great way for churches to deepen relationships with our global partners and celebrate all that we do together. We launched UnitingWorld Sunday on 7 May 2023, but you can do it any day that suits your church’s calendar.
