On March 2, the One Great Hour of Sharing campaign begins. This is one of the Special Offerings sponsored by the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in support of ministries of compassion, justice, hunger, education, peacemaking, and global witness. Funds raised during the season of Lent are sent to Presbyterian Mission Agency where they are divided with 36% to Presbyterian Hunger Program, 32% to Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, and 32% to Self-Development of People.
In 2020 the Disaster Assistance granted $6.5 million as more than 500 grants in the United States and 56 countries. Of that, $3.5 million was for COVID-19 response. Find an interactive world map with OGHS recipients may be seen at pcusa.org/oghsmap. Also, to find out more about the ongoing work of Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, go to presbyterianmission.org/pda.
A BIG Thank You to all who contributed either cans of soup or cash to Souperbowl Sunday. On Monday, 24 cans of soup, 3 bags of nonperishable food, and $14 cash was delivered to the Neighbors in Need Food Bank.
