The Grace Blog

On Sunday, October 7, we celebrate World Communion Sunday.  Along with siblings in faith around the globe we share the Lord’s Supper in worship.  We also receive the Peace and Global Witness Offering.  This offering is one of the PCUSA offerings we receive every year.  Fifty percent of the received offering goes to the national church for peacemaking efforts around the globe. Twenty-five percent goes to the Presbytery of Southern Kansas for peacemaking efforts in the region. The Grace Mission Distribution Team determines how to use the remaining 25%.

This year the Mission Distribution Team designates our percentage for the Good Neighboring Movement in the Wichita South Central (SoCe) Neighborhood.  They describe themselves this way:

The Neighboring Movement by SoCe Life researches, practices and teaches about neighboring. We practice good neighboring in the South Central (SoCe) neighborhood of Wichita, KS. Our dream is for a Neighboring Movement to sweep the nation in a way that strengthens communities, connects individuals, and revitalizes churches.
