Special Day Offering Envelopes
In past years, offering envelopes for each of the four Special Day Offerings—Easter, Pentecost, Thanksgiving and Christmas—were mailed to congregations along with the promotional materials for that particular offering.
As an effort to trim costs associated with the special day offerings, Disciples Mission Fund is using the same envelope for all four offerings this year. The envelope features the chalice and St. Andrew’s cross, with the Special Day Offerings named in each of the four corners. A checkbox allows either the congregation or the contributor to indicate the Special Day Offering to receive the gift.
It is important to note that the envelopes received with the Easter Offering materials are the congregation’s envelope supply for the entire year. Additional envelopes will not be mailed with the Pentecost, Thanksgiving and Christmas Offering materials.
The change will result in a savings of approximately $60,000 for the Office of General Minister and President.
If a congregation needs additional envelopes, they can request them from Gerri Lynn Reeves at greeves@ogmp.disciples.org or 317-713-2444.
