One Great Hour of Sharing: Presbyterian Disaster Assistance

During Lent and especially on Easter, we have the opportunity to participate in the One Great Hour of Click here. And, your donations just went to work in Perryville after the tornado.
Sharing. This is one of our Denomination’s annual Special Offerings and it provides funding for the Presbyterian Hunger Program, the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, and the Self Development of People. It’s amazing to go to a place of great natural disaster, years later, and have someone recall the PDA presence during the time of need. For more information on PDA,

From the Presbytery: The Presbyterian Disaster Assistance is on the scene, touring Perryville and is assessing the damage for a formal report of need to PC(USA).
It is in times like these we remember that we respond in mission to our friends and family in Perryville, particularly the congregation of First Presbyterian Church, Perryville. Please pray for Rev. Nancy Gillard and their congregation as they respond to the immediate needs of the community.
It is of critical importance that we remember their financial needs at this time. It is with that in mind that the Presbytery of Giddings-Lovejoy has created an account for this tragic event, in hopes of helping that congregation where it helps the most. No amount of giving is too small.
Please send donations of any amount to:
Presbytery of Giddings-Lovejoy
ATTN: Perryville
2236 Tower Grove Ave.
St. Louis, MO 63110-3596
