Welcoming our Neighbor with Gratitude
United Thank Offering and Episcopal Migration Ministries hosted a webinar on August 30 – “Welcoming our Neighbor with Gratitude.” This one-hour webinar explored EMM’s Neighbor to Neighbor program, the relationship between UTO and EMM, and the upcoming Great EpisGopal Race.
Participants will learn how UTO continues to support critical educational, advocacy, and support programs at EMM, ways individuals and congregations can become more involved in NtN, and how we can all express our gratitude through the Great EpisGopal Race. Recording available here.
United Thank Offering
The United Thank Offering (UTO) is a ministry of The Episcopal Church for the mission of the whole church. Through UTO, individuals are invited to embrace and deepen a personal daily spiritual discipline of gratitude. UTO encourages people to notice the good things that happen each day, give thanks to God for those blessings and make an offering for each blessing using a UTO Blue Box. UTO is entrusted to receive the offerings, and to distribute the 100% of what is collected to support innovative mission and ministry throughout The Episcopal Church and Provinces of the Anglican Communion.
