One Great Hour of Sharing® is one of four special mission offerings of the United Church of Christ. This Lenten offering supports the disaster, refugee, and development ministries of the United Church of Christ within Wider Church Ministries. The theme for the OGHS® offering this year is “Let Love Flow,” and focuses on the Water Well project of the United Church of Christ in Mozambique. The project’s goal is to provide 100 solar-powered wells throughout this drought-stricken country in southeast Africa. 50% of DUCC’s special mission offering for January through March will benefit OGHS®. Please let your love flow, and give generously.
The other half of the DUCC special mission offering will support the work of Community Refugee & Immigration Services (CRIS). The mission of CRIS is “to help refugees and immigrants reach safety and stability, sustain self-sufficiency, and achieve successful integration into the Central Ohio community.” They fulfill this mission by offering resettlement, ESL classes, family services, employment assistance, legal services, and more to their many clients throughout the Columbus metropolitan area. They also provide education to congregations like ours, teaching us how we can be of service to immigrants and refugees in our community. Please support this vital work with your offerings.
The featured needs for March:
Body lotion
Baby wipes
Donations may be placed in the church kitchen. Thank you for your support!

OCWM Basic support enables associations, conferences, the national setting, and some of our affiliated partners to continue providing the care and services that are vital to the United Church of Christ. OCWM Basic support is generally given at local churches, where the funds are then sent to their associations and conferences before being forwarded to the national offices in Cleveland. (Individual donors are encouraged to give through their local churches for Our Church’s Wider Mission Basic Support)
Strengthen the Church is a special mission offering to reimagine and build the future of the UCC. Shared at the conference and national levels, STC largely supports youth ministries and full-time leaders for new churches in parts of the country where the UCC does not have a strong presence. It also provides support for existing church’s new initiatives.
