Our Lenten Global Mission Offering: For over 70 years, One Great Hour of Sharing has provided Presbyterians a way to share God’s love with our neighbors in need worldwide. The three programs supported by One Great Hour of Sharing are the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, the Presbyterian Hunger Program, and the Self-Development of People program. Each works in a different way to serve individuals and communities in need. From initial disaster response to ongoing community development, their work fits together to provide people with safety, sustenance, and hope. This is an opportunity for us to spread Christ’s love around the globe and be a part of the universal Body of Christ. The Session has approved $2,000 from our mission budget to go towards this offering, realizing the abundance our church family has already given to mission in the past six months.
