Psalm 71 testifies that a foundation of faith established during childhood helps ensure lifelong faith and service. The patterns and lessons established during these formative years continue to bear fruit throughout a person’s life. By receiving the Pentecost Offering, you are nurturing the faith of those who are the church to come—children, youth, and young adults. A gift to the Pentecost Offering helps the church to encourage, develop, and support its young people, and also address the needs of at-risk children.
Forty percent of the Pentecost offering can be retained by individual congregations wanting to make an impact in the lives of young people within their own community. Our local contribution goes to Cru, the local representative of Campus Crusade for Christ International. The remaining 60% is used to support children-at-risk, youth, and young adults through ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency.
