One Great Hour of Sharing

Since 1949, Presbyterians
have joined with millions of other Christians through One Great Hour of Sharing
to share God’s love with people experiencing need. Our gifts support ministries
of disaster response, refugee assistance and resettlement, and community development
that help people find safe refuge, start new lives, and work together to strengthen
their families and communities. Recognizing that the hope we have in Christ
is lived out in our hope for one another, we respond with gifts that help our
sisters and brothers around the world find the hope for a brighter future.
The
Presbyterian Hunger Program receives 36 percent of undesignated One Great Hour
of Sharing gifts, while the Self-Development of People and Presbyterian Disaster
Assistance each receives 32 percent. Westminster receives this offering every
year on Easter Sunday.
