Neighbors In Need
Special Offering
Each year United Church of Christ congregations
throughout the United States participate in the Neighbors In Need (NIN)
offering. NIN monies are distributed to a wide array of congregations and
nonprofit organizations in the United States and Puerto Rico to further our
Christian commitment to justice and compassion. One-third of the offering is
used to support UCC American Indian congregations in the United States. This
year’s offering has been designated to support programs which include advocacy
on behalf of family farms, and aid for organizations on the US-Mexican border
that are working for more humane and just conditions for those who walk “the
migrant trail”.
The theme for this year’s
Neighbors in Need offering, which we will receive in The Community Church on
Sunday, November 27th, is “Imagine: Another World Is Possible.” As disciples of
Christ let us dare to imagine a world where every child of God is valued, loved
and nurtured in equal measure. NIN provides a way for us to journey in
support of those who are underprivileged, oppressed, or marginalized. Please
give generously.
