The call of the General Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in
the United States and Canada is to provide you with the tools to work as
partners and mission - welcoming all to Christ's table.
On April 1st and April 8th, most Disciples congregations will receive the
2012 Easter Offering in support of our general ministries.
Your gifts to the Easter offering support missionaries,
health care clinics,
residential facilities for developmentally disabled adults,
North American Pacific/Asian Disciples,
centers that help keep children from the sex trade and slave labor
Disciples Men and Disciples Women ministries,
congregational resources for leadership transitions,
training for clergy and laity,
global partnerships on six continents, the National Convocation,
leadership events for Disciples students,
care for those in South Africa infected with *** and those dying with AIDS,
the Central Pastoral Office for Hispanic Ministries,
relief and supplemental pensions for retired ministers,
and much, much more!
I'm Sharon Watkins,
your General Minister and President.
I pray you will give generously and
faithfully to the 2012 Easter Offering, as together
we are Disciples of Christ,
a movement for wholeness.
