Did you know . . .

Chapter Nine of Charles Fillmore's Prosperity ("Tithing, the Road to Prosperity") addresses tithing where he writes: In the 3d chapter of Malachi we find God's blessing directly connected with faithfulness in giving to the Lord's treasury, but gifts should be made because it is right and because one loves to give, not from a sense of duty or for the sake of reward. 
That there will be a reward following the giving we are also assured by Jesus in a direct promise "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give unto your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again. Luke 6:38"

Every month UCPC tithes 10% of our total income. The tithe funds are divided equally between Unity Worldwide Ministries, Silent Unity, Southeast Unity Ministries, and a local charitable organization. During the school year July through April) that local organization is our Adopt-A-School program with Willow Oaks Elementary School. This summer the Board selected Rachel's Kids as the beneficiary of our May and June funds.
