God has given us the greatest gift of all, let’s give back with actions of faith this Season of ThanksGIVING!
From Nov. 1 – Dec. 7 Manchester UMC celebrates the Season of ThanksGIVING. As we take time to give thanks for our many blessings, we’ll be able to bless others who are in need. There will be opportunities to serve our community by supporting three of our partner agencies – LifeWise StL, Epworth Children & Family Services and Bridge Bread. Individuals are able to put their faith into action in one or more of these ways:
-
- Donate needed items financially or tangibly
- Donate time by volunteering at the agency
Each Saturday evening and Sunday morning during this time period, you can visit Season of ThanksGIVING tables in the lobby where you can pick up a star representing a gift from the agencies’ “wish lists”. You can then shop for the gift, place it under the Giving Tree, and watch the tree get decorated as ornaments are placed on the tree for each gift given. Monetary donations will also be accepted on our “Give” website, designating “Season of ThanksGIVING”. The Manchester UMC community will have the opportunity to learn about what these agencies do, whom these agencies serve and see their specific needs.

Three options to Support Season of Giving
Volunteer at the Missions Table
Each week, Manchester UMC welcomes volunteers to serve at the Missions Table—in the Chapel on Saturdays or the Lobby on Sundays. This is your chance to connect with our church community while supporting meaningful outreach.
At the Missions Table, you’ll help visitors learn about local agencies, understand who they serve, and discover specific ways to make a difference. It’s a hands-on way to put your faith into action.
Sign up to volunteer today and help inspire others to love God and neighbor!
