                                                    As people of faith, we have responsibility to be good stewards of all God has given us, ourselves, our time, our possessions and the world God created.  

                                                    In the Fall we gather to remind ourselves of this by pledging, A) our Time and Talent, and B) our Financial Pledge to God through Unity Lutheran Church and it's mission to the world.

                                                    Everyone is invited to fill out a Time & Talent form and offer it to God in the Sunday offering plates.  Time and Talent forms list the opportunities to volunteer and give of ourselves through the ekklesia, or assembled church, and for the transformation of the world.

                                                    Everyone is invited to fill out a sealed Financial Pledge form and offer it to God in the Sunday offering plates.  Financial Pledges are our opportunity to pray on and consider what God is calling us to offer back, from all the good gifts God has given us.  Unity's sets a high bar, based on the scriptural and historical example of the church, offering a 10% tithe from its budget to the work of the wider church through the Metropolitan Chicago Synod and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).  Your generous gifts, as God gives you ability, are treasured at Unity.  We pledge to use them wisely to the glory of God.
