The United Thank Offering (UTO) was established in 1889 at the General Convention of the Episcopal Church. The mission of the United Thank Offering is to expand the circle of thankful people. To achieve this mission, they encourage daily prayers and offerings with an awareness of the abundance of God’s blessings. Christ Church collects offerings twice a year.  UTO’s vision statement, "We will significantly impact the lives of women and children because of Christ’s love", can be achieved with your help.  Parishioners at Christ Church have the opportunity to contribute to the UTO’s mission by using the little blue boxes (or envelopes) which are collected semi-annually at Christ Church and then taken to the diocesan ingathering.  For more information, please click here.
