Looking forward to 2016

In the last blog I indicated that Uniform in Christ would share how people can get involved in our ministry this year.  So with this we are excited to share our next outreach event that helps build the foundation for the year by discussing our ministry, enjoying worship and fellowship, hearing testimony, and most importantly praying for God's blessing as we move forward with 2016.  There are some incredible things in store and we would like you to be there to hear about them, as well as find out how you can support this mission.
An example of what 2016 is bringing to Service members, Veterans and Families through Uniform in Christ is the opportunity to participate in Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University without cost.  Churches, SMVF (Service members, Veterans and their Families), and supporters are able to get involved in this part of UIC through the channels below: 

-Churches that host FPU classes are invited to offer this opportunity to their local Service members, Veterans and Families by contacting us through the email address and making arrangements that fit both the church and UIC.  We welcome churches from all over the state to join in this effort. 
  
-Interested eligible participants find a local class through www.daveramsey.com and then email uniforminchrist@gmail.com to request an application to take the course.

-Anyone interested in contributing to allow Service members, Veterans and their Families the ability to participate in this course can email us to coordinate their contribution.  It costs UIC $90 to purchase each membership kit (1 kit/individual or family), so if there is interest in supporting one family or several, this is the rate to gauge the financial contribution.

100% of all donations to support this particular part of our ministry will go to paying for membership kits.  Currently, we have UIC specific course facilitators in Helena and are seeking to have UIC leaders and hosts across the state.  All facilitators are offering their time on a volunteer basis and are encouraged to share their personal financial journey as part of leading the course.

The reason we use this course is because Dave Ramsey has built his program based on guidance from the bible, speaks his heart, and has been at rock bottom financially.  This is wholesome living and part of character development.  We know that many of our Service members, Veterans and their Families can empathize by sharing the experience of being at rock bottom financially; and by hearing the gospel their lives can change for the best.

So we hope you can join us on January 29th to hear more about this part of our ministry and more.  God bless.

Uniform in Christ
