From Joanna Lee:
Have you heard of the Great EpisGOpal Race? This is a fundraising event to support the United Thank Offering (UTO). As your UTO Coordinator, I have taken it upon myself to enter the race to help raise funds. The United Thank Offering encourages people to establish a discipline of gratitude by noticing positive things each day, thanking God for these blessings and making a small offering for each blessing.
Normally, small blue UTO boxes are distributed to parishioners, and in the fall, the donations are collected. Each parish brings a check representing their donations to the ingathering at the annual Diocesan convention. 100% of the donations go to programs and ministries throughout the world. All Saints was the beneficiary of a UTO grant for the Greening of the Church in 2016/17: new roof, solar panels, energy-efficient furnace, etc.
Since this is certainly not a normal year, the Great EpisGOpal Race will help support the ingathering. I hope you will consider making a donation. Thank you!
