This year, give a boost to your One Great Hour of Sharing Offering

For nearly sixty years, Presbyterians have joined with millions of other Christians through OGHS to share God’s love with people experiencing need. Our gifts support ministries of disaster response, refugee assistance and resettlement, and community development that help people find safe refuge, start new lives, and work together to strengthen their families and communities. The Presbyterian Hunger Program receives 36 percent of undesignated OGHS gifts; Self-Development of People and Presbyterian Disaster Assistance each receive 32 percent. Most congregations receive the offering on Easter Sunday, Palm Sunday, or both, while many receive it throughout Lent.

This year, give a boost to your One Great Hour of Sharing Offering: mission and stewardship committees report that promoting this offering is fun and easy using children’s sermons, minutes for mission, skits, and other the material available from the PC(USA). I’m available to provide training in how to use them.
