World Communion Sunday is October 3. On this Sunday, we receive the Peace & Global Witness Offering which enables the church to promote the Peace of Christ by addressing systems of conflict and injustice across the world. Individual congregations are encouraged to utilize up to 25% of this Offering to connect with the global witness of Christ’s peace. Mid councils retain an additional 25% for ministries of peace and reconciliation. The remaining 50% is used by the Presbyterian Mission Agency to advocate for peace and justice in cultures of violence, including our own, through collaborative projects of education and Christian witness.

 Donate to this offering by using the special envelopes in the pews or by writing a check to First Presbyterian, earmarked “Peace & Global Witness”.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.
