A Five for Five Congregation

The United Church of Christ has challenged each of its member churches to be a "5 for 5 congregation," which means that the church commits to participating in all five of the UCC’s special offerings throughout the year. 

Old South has committed to supporting:


  • Our Church's Wider Mission, which offers basic support to the Maine Conference of the United Church of Christ and the National Office. Our contribution for 2014 was $8,000 from our annual budget.
  • One Great Hour of Sharing, which offers help, hope, and life by supporting partners in more than 70 countries with ministries that fund development projects, feed victims of famine, provide services for displaced people, and respond to natural disasters. This offering is collected each March.
  • Strengthen the Church, which supports UCC church growth and leadership development at both local and national levels. This offering is collected each May.
  • Neighbors in Need, which expresses the UCC's commitment to justice and compassion in the United States and Puerto Rico. This offering is collected each October.
  • Christmas Fund, which helps provide pension and health insurance for low-income retired church workers, as well as emergency assistance to clergy families in need. This offering is taken each December.
