Of course, you want to share inspiring stories of the transformational work of Mission & Service! Of course, you have enjoyed the booklets that used to be mailed to communities of faith. Some people are understandably looking for the original print format. Times are changing though, and we want to make sure you are still reading these meaningful stories and sharing them with others in your congregation.
Stories are now created on an ongoing basis so that they are relevant and connected. COVID was one of the many factors that made this change necessary, as print content tended to be out of date with partner needs and global realities. These are shared on the United Church Website. You can also have these stories delivered right to your inbox packaged nicely in the God’s Mission, Our Gifts newsletter. Sign up for that here.
If you want to dig in to Mission & Service a little deeper, check out these resources for congregational enthusiasts, annual planning documents, and Your Generosity Matters stories, worship materials and videos. If you have any questions about Mission & Service, please get in touch with Vicki Nelson, Stewardship Animator for Western Canada, vnelson@united-church.ca
