“For if the eagerness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has—not according to what one does not have.”

It’s that time of year again when we are given the marvelous opportunity to share in the abundance of needs of our sisters and brothers by contributing to One Great Hour of Sharing. By the grace of God, all of us have the power to give, and the gifts we give make the world more the way God intended it to be—a place where everyone has what they need. Together, we can achieve a fair balance on this planet we all share, giving right back to God what God has so richly bestowed upon us.

As the Church in the world, through One Great Hour of Sharing, we have the opportunity to act in one accord as the body of Christ, to ensure that all of God’s children have what they need. This is the offering that Paul was promoting, and this is still our ministry, all these centuries later. Together, we will achieve a fair balance, bringing about a world the way God intended it to be.           (From OGHS online resources.)

 Last year’s OGHS giving provided assistance in the fight against Ebola in Liberia where our own Kristy Engel served as a consultant. This is just one example of worldwide assistance provided by OGHS funds.                      
 Will you prayerfully consider your gift to help meet the emergency needs of others?


Peace and Calm

Stillness, Calm, Peace . . .
Bring me release
From busyness,
Anxiety . . .
Help me do less.
Help me focus
On You, my Lord.
Lead me today
Along your way.
Let me be still
And know your will.
Let me see you
In all I do.

Will you pause to reflect on God’s presence in your life?
