The Gratitude Gift, the EPC’s annual denomination-wide Christmas offering, supports the Gratitude Gift Fund. Donations to the offering provide financial assistance to retired EPC pastors and World Outreach global workers who need help to pay their out-of-pocket medical expenses. The Gratitude Gift Fund is funded solely by donations from EPC churches.
Jeff Jeremiah, EPC Stated Clerk, said he receives notes every year from those who receive assistance through the Fund.
“The cards and emails from retired EPC ministers all say the same thing: they are so thankful for the Gratitude Gift,” he said. “The message often is, ‘I don’t know where I would be without it.’ Especially this year, I hope all of our churches will participate and help provide this blessing to our retired EPC ministers and missionaries.”
To help facilitate the annual Christmas offering, bulletin inserts are available in printable PDF format at www.epc.org/donate/gratitudegift. Gratitude Gift offering envelopes also are available at no cost to EPC churches at www.epc.org/donate/gratitudegiftenvelopes.
