United Thank Offering- June 4, 2017

United Thank Offering Ministry

UTO Ingathering will be held June 4, 2017 at all services.   Boxes are in the narthex for those that would like to take one and collect their change over the course of the next few weeks.  Every penny offered in thankfulness is made available as grants.  Those little blue boxes continue to help us to be prayerful, to be thankful for our blessings and to serve as a reminder that God is constantly with us through thick and thin. The steadfast “prayer and thankfulness” of all of us has improved the lives of many women and children throughout the world and in our own backyard (Diocese) through UTO grants, which show the tangible results of our offerings for our many blessings.

Thank you & Blessings,

Amy Swiernik
