UCiM has introduced a new and exciting fundraiser that has the potential to raise several thousands of dollars for the church and at no cost to you the congregants. How is this possible, you ask?
The Red River Co-op offers membership to individuals purchasing their gas. At the end of the year, Red River Co-op pays a dividend to their members based on their profits and, of course, the amount of gas each member purchased over the year. Last year, the members received a payment of .12 cents per litre.
So, we as a church have purchased a membership and have printed gas cards for our members and family to take and use should they desire to do so. The reward can be significant. For example, if we issued 100 cards and they were used once a month with an average purchase of just 40 litres, the church would have the potential to receive a rebate cheque of $5,760 for the year. Members of the church, who already have a card, know this can happen and maybe they would consider using our membership card even once a month. So, there you have it, a fundraiser that does not cost you any money.
Our membership number is 353552 and cards are available at the church office for anyone to pick up or you may just quote the number to the cashier at the Red River Co-op gas outlet. As well, a digital copy of the card can be found below. Red River Co-op offers full-service when you purchase your gas there.
Your participation in this venture is greatly appreciated. For more ways to contribute and support your ministry, please see the Donate page.
UCiM, at our Annual Meeting on February 26/12, made some exciting decision to meet the commitments we have made to grow our ministry. One of the realities of those choices is the financial component. As we work through 6 weeks of stories that highlight – through quick snapshots – aspects of our ministry, we pray you will consider helping us meet the goals we have collectively set over the last several years. Welcome to the 2012 Ask: 37k @ Campaign!

Week 1: Introduction (Mar 18/12)
Week 1: Story #1 (Mar 18/12)
A woman stands looking @ UCiM’s brochures.
When asked if she needs help, she looks up with a tear in her eye.
As she holds the Radically Welcoming brochure, from the Affirm Small Group,
she says “this is wonderful,”
& asks for more. A conversation then unfolds …
Week 2: Story #2 (Mar 25/12)
A family, with little church experience,
loses a young man in a car accident.
in devastation & loss they find UCiM.
Ggrief, anger, doubts & questions are shared.
The young man’s life is celebrated @ UCiM.
Tthe Sacred is present as loss is given voice in worship
Week 3: Story #3
Newcomers to St. Vital are looking for a place to call home
where they can worship God,
hear about Jesus’ ministry & where their children can be welcomed.
Facebook is the doorway
& the face-face hospitality is why they continue to worship
Week 4: Story #4
A person walks into UCiM seeking the Holy.
Worship draws & family accompanies.

UCiM’s connexion with West Broadway Community Ministry is discovered.
Now this person worships & lives out the Good News in our midst
Week 5: Story #5
A child enters UCiM’s’s sanctuary shy, weary and worried.
Smiles greet and nurture.
As time proceeds, as patience and care are extended,
this wee one grows, matures and awakens.
From child to adult, still in our midst,
music is returned & is gift indeed!
