United Methodist Women members are knitted together in a beautiful, creative and supportive fellowship of faithful gratitude.
The World Thank Offering is an opportunity each year for individuals to respond to God’s abundant grace. When we share our gifts and they are combined with the gifts of others, our contributions make possible the support of programs such as national mission institutions and international projects and partners to meet the physical and social needs of vulnerable women, children and youth.
In a year filled with doubt and uncertainty, let us remember all that we have to be thankful for. I invite you to join me in giving a spontaneous gift of gratitude to the World Thank Offering right now. This year, with the ravaging effects of a worldwide pandemic and its economic impact touching every corner of creation, your gift is more important than ever.
Even if you are not able to meet as a unit right now, you can still participate in the World Thank Offering Service! Simply download the service “The Give and Take of Gratitude” from the 2020-2021 United Methodist Women Program Book and follow the instructions. We may be apart, but we can still be knitted together in thankfulness!
Thankful Living = Grateful Giving. Thank you for your gifts to the World Thank Offering!
In Continued Gratitude and Thankfulness,
Harriett Jane Olson
General Secretary/CEO
