The remaining 60% is used to support these ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency:

  • Young Adult Volunteers
  • Ministries for Youth
  • Children-at-Risk
  • Pentecost Offering Financials

The Session has agreed to use our 40% of the contributions to the Pentecost Offering to help fund the upcoming youth mission trip to Louisville, Kentucky.
