Offerings

Each month at our communion services we are given the opportunity to give that something extra to fight hunger one person at a time. Hunger offerings are collected and forwarded to organizations that fight hunger. These organizations are rotated between local, regional and national/international. We may not be able to eliminate hunger, but we make a difference to that one person we reach.

Here at NPC, we start Super Bowl Sunday off right by joining with congregations around the country by helping our needy neighbors through the Souper Bowl of Caring. It's a simple, yet significant act of caring for others. Monetary donations and cans of soup are collected.  These donations will be immediately put to use in our Loaves and Fishes Emergency Food Pantry.  Thanks for helping meet the needs of hungry families in our community during this extremely difficult time. It's a Newlonsburg thing!

Typically received during the season of Lent, each gift to One Great Hour of Sharing supports efforts to relieve hunger through the Presbyterian Hunger Program, promote development through the Presbyterian Committee on the Self-Development of People, and assist in areas of disaster through Presbyterian Disaster Assistance. All three programs work in different ways to serve individuals and communities in need. From initial disaster response to ongoing community development, their work fits together to provide people with safety, sustenance, and hope.

Each year during the Advent and Christmas season, we lift up past, present, and future leaders of the church. God has blessed the church with incredible leadership in every time and place, but those leaders often need to be supported by their communities as well. This Offering provides support for Presbyterian church workers and their families in their time of need and leadership development and education for communities of color at Presbyterian-related schools and colleges equipping communities of color.

Peace & Global Witness Offering enables the church to promote the Peace of Christ by addressing systems of conflict and injustice across the world. Through the Peace & Global Witness Offering, congregations are encouraged and equipped to find and address the anxiety and discord that is prevalent throughout this broken and sinful world.
