Neighbors in Need (NIN) is a special mission offering of the United Church of Christ that supports ministries of justice and compassion throughout the United States.
​
In 2022, Neighbors in Need “BEHOLD!” offering focuses on economic justice. With inflation impacting off our households, we wanted to provide a way to discuss this through a faith lens. One-third of NIN funds support the Council for American Indian Ministry (CAIM). Two-thirds of this offering are used by the UCC’s Justice and Witness Ministries (JWM) to provide grants to UCC churches and organizations leading justice initiatives, advocacy efforts, and direct service projects in their communities.
