Pentecost Offering: May 27th

Each year on Pentecost Sunday, we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit as a bringer of new life.  With the Spirit's coming, we no longer need to settle for business as usual but can know the transforming, redeeming love of God that makes the impossible possible.

The Pentecost Offering is one of the four Special Offerings of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).  Gifts to the Pentecost Offering help bring God's transforming, redeeming love to children at risk, guide and nurture young people's growing faith and provide opportunities for young adults to become spiritual leaders--all in the name of Jesus Christ.

The benefits are all around us.  Presbyterian congregations are finding new ways to minister to children at risk in their own communities.  General Assembly programs are advocating for children and developing youth and young adult leaders.  Since 1998, Presbyterians of all ages have raised more than $9 million for ministries that benefit younger members of God's family.

Forty percent (40%) of the Pentecost Offering is kept by Presbyterian congregations for use on behalf of children at risk.

Ten percent (10%) of the Offering supports General Assembly child advocacy ministries.

Twenty-five percent (25%) goes to support ministries with youth aged 12-18 and those called to accompany them.

Another 25% goes to Young Adult Volunteer opportunities.

Your dollars really do make a difference!  Please consider supporting this valuable mission and invest in our greatest resource--our children and youth.  Thank you in advance for your support!
