ECW - United Thank Offering
The United Thank Offering (UTO) is a ministry of the Episcopal Church for the mission of the whole church. Through UTO individuals are invited to embrace and deepen a personal daily spiritual discipline of gratitude and to make an offering for each blessing using a UTO Blue Box. 100% of what is collected supports the innovative mission and ministry throughout The Episcopal Church and Provinces of the Anglican Communion. Volunteer needs are material distribution, parish education and annual campaign promotion.
