Strengthen the Church Offering
Each day, visions and dreams are created in the hearts of many in the United Church of Christ. Through the Strengthen the Church offering, they can become a reality. As God calls our con-gregations to be church in new ways, your gift will plant new churches, awaken new ideas in existing churches, and develop spiritual life in our youth and young adults. Because of this offering, many more will hear the good news that “God is still speaking.” Offering envelopes will be available soon.

Dear Friends,
Your generous donation to the Church World Service Blankets + Program tells
people in crisis “You’re not alone. Someone cares.”
We are deeply grateful for your support. Because of your compassion
Families who have lost their homes to tornadoes, flood, earthquakes
and other disasters are getting help with blankets, emergency food and
shelter—and with rebuilding their lives and livelihoods.
People struggling against crushing poverty and harsh climates are ler
arning sustainable farming practices that will help them keep food on
the table—and take it to market.
Vunerable children have access to clean, safe water and the nutritional
food essential to growth, development and life itself.
On behalf of all the people who feel more hopeful and less alone because of
your generosity, we thank you for your contribution of $1041.00.
Sincerely
Rev. John L. McCullough
President and CDEO
Thank you for sending the prayer quilt,
prayers, cards and phone calls during
my illness.
Carroll Funkhouser.
Dearest Church Family,

ship and support Trinity members have

member. She loved you all dearly.
Lee Ann Buchanan & the entire Bea Schisler

ated by our family.
