You’re all kindly invited to be testimonial-givers and the reason is because you all are some of the most generous folks we have in our community with your time, talent, and treasure. You’re an inspiration!!!</div><div><br></div><div>With so much gratitude for all you do to keep our community humming,</div><div><br></div><div>Charlotte and the whole Stewardship Team</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>PS. Following are a few examples of very brief “testimonial quotes”:</div><div><div><ul><li>“I contribute because I am grateful to our church for ‘re-energizing’ me. I'm re-energized by the people I've met, through the powerful messages from the pulpit, and the amazing choir.”</li><li>"We give as generously as we can to UCM because we get so much in return. Here, we have community, friends of all ages, as well as a loving challenge to live our lives as fully as we can, and to enable others in our world to do the same.”</li></ul></div></div><div><ul><li>"We pledge because we care.
