The Christmas Fund Offering

Remembering Those Who Serve the Church

The Christmas Fund Offering (formerly Veterans of the Cross), is an important way of sharing our joy at God's renewing and life-giving grace. The offering, which is administered by The Pension Boards on behalf of the UCC, is an expression of joy and gratitude for those who serve the church.

Gifts to the Christmas Fund help provide pension and health premium supplementation to low-income retirees, emergency assistance to clergy families in need, and Christmas gift checks to hundreds of annuitants.

Your gifts are needed more than ever to help the growing number of retirees whose low-income annuities make it difficult to meet increasing living costs. This is your opportunity to participate in God's promise of renewal by enabling this ministry of compassion and care.
