ONE GREAT HOUR

OF SHARING

For over 70 years One Great Hour of Sharing has provided Presbyterians a way to share God's love with our neigh-bors in need around the world.

In a world of disaster, hunger, and oppression, millions of people lack access to sustainable food sources, clean water, sanitation, education, and opportunity. The three programs supported by One Great Hour of Sharing - Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, the Presbyterian Hunger Program, and Self-Development of People - all work in different ways to serve individuals and communities in need. From initial disaster response to ongoing community development, their work fits together to provide people with safety, sustenance, and hope. The impact you can have results in Restoring Hope, Feeding the Hungry, and Empowering the Oppressed.


Available on Sunday are the Fish Banks and the 2023 Lent Calendar to help you count your blessings and to prepare for the special offering on Easter Sunday, April 9.
