Special Offering - One Great Hour of Sharing

Through four church-wide Special Offerings throughout the year, Presbyterians share Christ's love with millions of people around the world. We encourage every member to give to these offerings that connect us to God's work and change lives.

One Great Hour of Sharing is received each Easter, and serves the "least of these" among us by feeding the hungry, empowering the oppressed, and by providing relief to those affected by catastrophic events. To give directly to OGHS, click here. To give to GPPC, click here.
