With the start of Lent began our One Great Hour of Sharing drive. This year’s offering theme is “You Shall Be Called Repairers of the Breach.”
Lent is traditionally a season of fasting and prayer. During this time, Christians pay close attention to spiritual disciplines that deepen our understanding of what God is doing in our lives and in the world. As a church we spend time together hearing about and praying for the ministries of compassion and justice done through our support of One Great Hour of Sharing.
Jesus’ ministry was among those who were most vulnerable. He preached good news to the poor and release to the captives. One Great Hour of Sharing helps us share God’s love with our neighbors-in-need around the world by providing relief from natural disasters, food for the hungry and support for the poor and oppressed.
Every gift made to this offering will meet the needs of many people. Through your gifts and the gifts of other congregations, the One Great Hour of Sharing offering will continue to be a reminder that through the simple act of sharing, we are blessed and experience God’s abundance in surprising ways.
Your One Great Hour of Sharing gifts will be received on Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday.
Please use the envelope in your box of church envelopes.
