Pilgrimage 2018 is this weekend in Fayetteville and Bishop Ward shares exciting news about this year’s special offering for Conference Disaster Response.
Grace and peace to you in the name of Jesus Christ.
It’s November. It’s time for Pilgrimage. Very soon, thousands of young people will head toward Fayetteville for the weekend that is a highlight of our youth ministry in the North Carolina Annual Conference. The weekend will abound in friendship and community and worship and service. Young people will go forth to serve God with even greater strength in their local churches and communities.
The youth are amazing leaders among us. They have set a goal of $500,000 for hurricane recovery in eastern North Carolina and the Council on Administration and Finance has agreed to match dollar for dollar all the money that the youth raise. So when you give a young person $20, you’re giving them $40. If you give them $50, you are giving them $100.
Together with the young people of our Conference, we look forward to amazing in gathering of resources for the rebuilding of our beloved Conference.
Thank you for your prayers and generosity as Pilgrimage happens.
