Blanket Sunday-February 24, 2019

February 24, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Blanket the world with LOVE 

On Blanket Sunday, February 24, 2019 the Presbyterian Women ask for your help supporting this Blanket ministry by giving $5 or more to purchase blankets for people in crisis situations in the U.S. and around the world. The program also purchases tents, food, and other supplies in the wake of disaster. Thank you for your support!!!

As we sit in the middle of the cold winter months, we should think about our neighbors that are experiencing the cold differently than our families. Think about our neighbors who can’t afford to keep their furnace set at 72 degrees all day long; our neighbors who spend cold winter nights in their car because they don’t have a house to go home to; our neighbors who sleep on a park bench or under a bridge.

These are also the times to think about the impact a simple blanket can make on the spirit of our neighbors in these situations.

The Church World Service Blanket ministry is an easy way for churches to participate in a broad-reaching mission to provide our neighbors that are experiencing poverty, displacement or disaster with a warm blanket to comfort them in their time of need.
