For over seventy years, Presbyterians have participated in One Great Hour of Sharing during Lent, starting on the first Sunday in Lent (March 9) and culminating on Easter Sunday (April 20).
This year’s theme is “Repairing the Breach”.
In a world where many of our brothers and sisters lack access to sustainable food sources, clean water, education, and opportunity, there are three programs supported by One Great Hour of Sharing that address these areas of need. These programs are Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, the Presbyterian Hunger Program, and Self Development of People. These all work in different ways to serve individuals and communities in need. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance works to provide relief to those affected by natural or manmade disasters. The Presbyterian Hunger Program helps to provide food for the hungry. Self Development of People helps provide resources to communities working to cast of the bonds of poverty and oppression. You will find envelopes in the sanctuary. Please give generously.
