ONE GREAT HOUR OF SHARING
The past year has been a challenging one for our church and for many people
throughout the world. Even though we have not been able to worship in person,
we have been connected in various ways. We have continued to worship. We have
continued to take care of one another, and we have continued to participate in
special offerings. The One Great Hour of Sharing offering is the single, largest way
that Presbyterians come together every year to work for a better world. The
Mission Interpretation Committee has continued to meet via Zoom and has set a
goal of $1500 for our One Great Hour of Sharing offering. The offering will be
dedicated on Easter Sunday, April 4, 2021.
As Jesus says in Matthew 25, the church belongs with those in need – with
those suffering from natural and human-caused disasters; with those lacking
access to food, water and healthcare; and with those struggling for justice,
righteousness and peace. Through our gifts to OGHS, we are there because we are
the Church together. OGHS helps improve the lives of the suffering and the
vulnerable through three life-saving programs – Presbyterian Disaster Assistance,
Presbyterian Hunger Program and Self-Development of People. There are several
ways that you can give:
Through our congregation by check or at fpcyo.org
Donate by credit card online at presbyterianmission.org/give-oghs

Remember, IF WE ALL DO A LITTLE, IT ADDS UP TO A LOT!
THANK YOU
