SUMMARY:2022 Pentecost Offering: Turning Struggle into Steadfastness
DESCRIPTION:Stories of struggle are nothing new to the church. \n\n\n\nFrom the persecution faced by early Christians to civil rights movements led by faith leaders\, the church has found its strength in times of unrest. \n\n\n\nThe COVID-19 pandemic is yet another chapter in this long history\, both nothing unique and yet entirely different.  \n\n\n\nThrough it all\, Disciples have been steadfast. By launching emerging congregations\, they have stepped up to care for communities in need. \n\n\n\nBut they don’t do it alone. \n\n\n\nWith the help of regional and general ministries\, these brave leaders have been provided with facilities to conduct their outreach activities and with online educational opportunities\, such as Leadership Academy. \n\n\n\nBy making a gift to the 2022 Pentecost Offering\, received in most congregations on Sundays\, May 29 and June 5\, you can ensure that the new church movement continues to prosper across the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. \n\n\n\nEach year\, half of these gifts go to your own region to support local new church development. The other half goes to New Church Ministry\, which trains\, equips\, assists\, and multiplies new church leaders across the U.S. and Canada through programs such as coaching\, New Church Hacks\, and Water the Plants. \n\n\n\nPlanning\, nurturing\, and sustaining new places of worship is part of the Disciples’ vision – participation in this Special Day Offering helps this vision come to life. \n\n\n\nPlease consider making a generous gift to this year’s Pentecost Offering. \n\n\n\nResources\, including graphics\, stories to share\, and videos\, can be found on the Disciples Mission Fund website. \n\n\n\nStories from previous years’ Pentecost Offerings can be found here.
