A Little Act of Generosity
Scripture reminds us to remember the words of our Lord Jesus who said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Acts 20:35 There are many ways in which we can give. We can give our tithes and offerings, and we can give of our time and talents. But in all things remember that all that we have comes from God and belongs to God and to be a good steward of what we have been given.

The Grace of Giving
We have concluded the Grace of Giving campaign that raised funds for the fit-out of the new church building. We are so grateful for the prayer support, donations, the Union ReUnion, the Grace Race and sponsors. We are delighted to report that our target of HK$32 million has been reached - and in fact exceeded. The fit-out begins in early 2023 and we hope to return to 22A Kennedy Road in June / July 2023.
Some people who have made commitments have not yet made their donations so we will continue to receive donations to The Grace of Giving.
You may do this by credit card via Union Church's online giving form. Alternatively, you may make your donation directly to Bank of East Asia Limited, Account No. 015-521-68-00975-1 (SWIFT Code if needed is BEASHKHH). Or you may write a cheque to "Union Church", indicating on the back "The Grace of Giving". See our church address in the footer, below. American taxpayers may write a cheque to "Friends of Hong Kong Charities, Inc." with "The Grace of Giving" on the back and send it to Union Church.
If you have questions, please contact us at . We have clearly seen God at work in blessing the Union Church community during the Grace of Giving campaign, not only in fundraising but also in faith-raising. We have been truly "blessed to a be a blessing". To God be the glory!
