North Gower United Donating:
Jody always welcomes a cheerful giver, and she is great at exploring ways that work for you to donate to the church if you wish. For instance…
-
You can mail Jody post-dated cheques.
-
You can also donate through the non-profit site CanadaHelps online if you go to the North Gower United Church Website. There is a 4% fee for this. northgowerunited.church
-
The easiest thing to do is to use PAR (Pre-Authorized Remittance- it comes out of your bank account). I believe there is a 50 cent fee per transaction. If you want to go this route, Jody can walk you through this process. Jody Leclair nguctreasurer@gmail.com.
Pray for Ukraine
If your heart and compassion is in your praying, each prayer makes a difference, no matter how long or how short. If you want to know what’s happening to support Ukraine, check out this link: https://eoorc.ca/resources/ukraine-conflict-how-can-we-help/ This link includes things like a Ukrainian Relief Fundraising Lunch, how to help refugees come to Canada, and links for monetary donations.
Your support and prayers make a big difference. Thank you!
