PENTECOST OFFERING - Sunday, May 20

The Pentecost Offering helps the church encourage, develop, and support its young people, and also address the needs of at-risk children. Forty percent of the Pentecost Offering can be retained by individual congregations wanting to make an impact in the lives of young people within their own community.

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.

You can give at any time to the Pentecost Offering
between now and May 20.
