CHRISTMAS JOY

OFFERING

 

A Presbyterian tradition for almost seventy years, the Christmas Joy Offering is one of the four special offerings designated by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to provide congregations direct ways of supporting specific causes that help those in need.

Fifty percent of the receipts to the Christmas Joy Offering are distributed to the Board of Pensions for assistance programs that provide support to retired and active church workers and their spouses and families. The other fifty percent supports Presbyterian-related racial ethnic education through the National Ministries Division of the General Assembly Council.

You are encouraged to support the Christmas Joy Offering through your gifts.

At Glen Avon, we will dedicate our 2007 Christmas Joy Offering on the Sunday of Advent, December 23, 2007.
