Remember the 13th Month!

Dear HUUC Members and Friends,

We are very near the end of the 2024 calendar year, which means that we are also close to launching our first-ever 13th month pledge campaign. The idea with this supplemental pledge campaign is that we will ask each pledging member and friend to contribute the equivalent of one month’s pledge as an additional “13th month” donation to the church.

Here’s how this campaign will work. Just after Thanksgiving, all members and friends who made a pledge for the current fiscal year will receive an email from me via huucpledge@gmail.com. In that email, I will let you know what your 13th month pledge would be based on your current yearly pledge amount. You will have the option of paying your 13th month pledge as an additional full month’s payment, or you will be able to choose a different amount.

If you currently make your pledge payments via EFT, then you will be able to select that payment option for the 13th month pledge (I’ll include a submission deadline in order for the EFT withdrawal to happen by the end of the year). You will also have the option of paying via check.

This fund-raising concept received very strong support at our last Annual Meeting, and I’m looking forward to seeing how generous we can be with this effort over the holiday season. The 13th month pledge campaign will run from the week after Thanksgiving through the end of the year.

Please email me if you have any questions at:

Yours in service and generosity,

Reid Hester
HUUC Stewardship Chair
