Pentecost Offering – Time to Start Planning!
The Pentecost Offering supports
Children at Risk — Youth — Young Adults
This Offering helps the church encourage, develop, and support its young people, and also address the needs of at-risk children.
40% 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. Churches have used that money to develop or support their own programs, including Vacation Bible School or Sunday School, or to send youth to Triennium, Camp Johnsonburg, or other programs.
The remaining 60% is used to support children-at-risk, youth, and young adults through ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency.
With session schedules and church newsletter deadlines,
here is a friendly reminder to get the session approval you need.

or other youth-focused Sundays like

College and Young Adult Sunday, August 6,
or Youth in the Church and World, August 13.
