A Response to California Wildfires
It has been heartbreaking watching the news or reading online updates about the devastation happening in so many areas in California. The One Great Hour of Sharing Offering exists to respond with immediate funds during times of disasters, but it is specific gifts from churches and individuals that will provide what is needed for what will be years of rebuilding and recovery.
If your church wants to respond to this need, please put the amount on the One Great Hour of Sharing line on the remittance and write California Wildfires in the detail section.
As always, checks and remittances should be mailed to: WMS, P.O. Box 421, Hatboro, PA 19040
Disaster Relief Fund
Often, following a Disaster, ABCOPAD sends teams to assist in Disaster Relief Efforts.
If you would like to help support our ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Volunteer teams, you can donate to the ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund. Please note: This is different than the national One Great Hour of Sharing Disaster Relief Fund.
ONLINE: Donations can be made online HERE.
NOTE: You must select ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund to specify that your contribution is to remain in ABCOPAD to help support our Regional Volunteer Teams. Otherwise, the funds will be directed to the national disaster relief effort.
THROUGH YOUR CHURCH:
You can send contributions to the ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund through your church's regular mission remittance. Your check can be made out to your church, with a note on the memo line: ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund.
NOTE: Church Treasurers should simply indicate on the remittance form there is a donation to the ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund.
DIRECT GIVING: You can also send direct/personal contributions to:
ABCOPAD
P.O. Box 421
Hatboro, PA 19040
NOTE: Checks should be made out to: ABCOPAD Disaster Relief Fund. Also, mention your church and city if you wish your gift to be credited to your congregation's overall giving.
Partners In Ministry Offering
None of us can do ministry in isolation. We need each other if we want to see Christ's mission in our world fulfilled. ABCOPAD is committed to partnership. Below are bulletin inserts that help tell the story of the many ways ABCOPAD seeks to be a partner with congregations, pastoral leaders, and our wider ABC Family. We need you to be a partner in our ministry together. Thanks in advance for your generosity.
The Apostle Paul wrote: "I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."
(Philippians 1:3-6)
