Mission and Service

Mission and Service
In The United Church of Canada we have a vision of how we participate in God’s mission in the world. This United Vision involves ministry in our own United Churches and in work with partners across the country and around the globe. Our United Vision and our United work is funded by the Mission and Service Fund.

One less thing to worry about while you are on vacation.



Lets see. The mail has been stopped. The newspaper has been stopped. Friends are going to come in and water the plants. The local boy is going to take care of the lawn. Sounds like you are about ready to go on vacation. Sounds like you have everything quite taken care of.










But you haven't got everything ready!!!!!!!!!


What about your local congregation? Who is going to take care of things when you are away? Who is going to make sure that the on going projects of your church can continue even though you are not there?


How about PAR?





PAR stands for pre-authorized remittance. It ensures that there is continued support for your congregation and the M&S Fund even when you are not there. You choose the amount you wish to give and how that money is to be distributed- local church, Mission and Service, World Development Relief. Each month your contribution is automatically withdrawn from your bank account or credit card. It is an easy way to ensure the on going work of your church even when you are not there.
To find out more about PAR or to set up your PAR gifts contact your church treasurer or email ms@united-church.ca
