It's Pentecost this Sunday! Wear Red!
Why?
Red symbolizes the work of the Holy Spirit and the sacrifices of martyrs.
But wait there's more!
We will be participating in a nationwide special offering (monetary donations collected during worship), the Pentecost Offering:
A gift to the Pentecost Offering helps the church encourage, develop, and support its young people, and also address the needs of at-risk children. 40% 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 ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency:
Young Adult Volunteers
Ministries for Youth
Children-at-Risk
Pentecost Offering Financials
