THE UNITED THANK OFFERING
THROUGH DAILY PRAYER AND TANGIBLE OFFERINGS, LIVES ARE CHANGED IN VERY REAL WAYS.
THE UNITED THANK OFFERING
of The Episcopal Church is a personal spiritual
discipline of thanksgiving that supports God’s mission
throughout the world.
HOW IT WORKS:G I V E T H A N K S f o r
T H E G O O D T H I N G S T H AT H A P P E N E V E RY DAY:
FOR LITTLE THINGS like a good parking spot on a busy day,
sunshine for your family picnic, or a birthday card from a friend.
FOR BIG THINGS like recovery from serious illness,
a new job, or forgiveness and reconciliation after a long dispute.
A S Y O U G I V E T H A N K S ,put some coins or dollars into a United Thank
Offering Blue Box, or set aside an offering reminder for later. When your box is full or you put a check in a United Thank Offering
envelope, your thanksgivings unite with others’ prayers and thankful quarters, dimes,
and dollars from across The Episcopal Church to support God’s mission around the world:
Your sunny family picnic builds a S E N I O R C O M M U N I T Y C E N T E R I N L O U I S I A N A .
Your new job supports C A R E E R R E A D I N E S S T R A I N I N G I N H A I T I .
The birthday card from a friend becomes an E L E VAT O R F O R A W E L L N E S S FA C I L I T Y I N A

The now-forgotten dispute funds an E N G L I S H I M M E R S I O N P R O G R A M I N TA N Z A N I A .
