Saints of God Award

The Saints of God Stewardship Award was established in 1994 by Raleigh resident Gordon Smith III in memory of his mother, Jean Poe Smith. Each year the award recognizes “outstanding Christian stewardship and service” within the NC Conference of the United Methodist Church. The award gets its name from the hymn “I Sing a Song of the Saints of God.”
