Our Response to God's Generosity
God, you are the Giver of All Good Gifts and Graces. Grow in us the wisdom to know that all we have to give is in our hands only because You have given to us. May the gifts we have been given and the gifts we share reflect the depth of our gratitude for your many blessings. We pray this in the holy name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen
Here are a couple of options in which you may give:
- By texting holdenumc give to 833-748-4001, following the instructions that follow
- By mailing to Holden UMC; 605 E 10th St, Holden MO 64040
We are grateful for your faithfulness and generosity.
