Gifts With Vision
The United Church of Canada provides Mission & Service support to partners for their ongoing work in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and right here in Canada. Gifts with Vision turns gift giving into an opportunity to do something extra for our church partners. Through Gifts with Vision, you give gifts to friends or family to support specific partner activities. With your gifts, we help create healthy places to live, promote justice, provide social services, and enliven worship.

Get Support to Create your Stewardship Campaign!
If your congregation hasn’t undertaken a stewardship campaign in a while, consider registering for a 2-week learning module on creating a congregational giving program with Called to be the Church: The Journey. There are 2 opportunities to participate in the online program this month – one starting on November 19th and the other starting on November 20th. Learn more and register here.
Getting Started in Stewardship – November 20th – two options – 4:00 pm or 6:30 pm start (Eastern Time).
Come on your own, or come with a team and join United Church people from across the country to learn some stewardship first principles.
In this 90-minute live meeting we’ll answer questions like:
- What is stewardship all about anyway?
- Isn’t stewardship just a churchy word for fundraising?
- Why do people give, and why would they give to our church?
- What can we do to encourage greater generosity?
This course is great for new Stewardship Committee members, folks looking to activate stewardship work in their community of faith, or those looking for a refresher. It is free to attend!
