What you see below is the official poster for the 2011 Week of Compassion Special Offering taped onto my whiteboard with a festive marker-drawn frame all around it.
For the next two Sundays we'll be focusing on Week of Compassion. Week of Compassion is the relief, refugee and development mission fund of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. Week of Compassion seeks to equip and empower disciples to alleviate the suffering of others through disaster response, humanitarian aid, sustainable development and the promotion of mission opportunities.
We'll begin collecting the Week of Compassion Special Offering this Sunday and worship will be built around several resources from Week of Compassion as well as the lectionary scriptures from Leviticus 19 and Matthew 5:38-48.
