ONE GREAT HOUR OF SHARING
The early history of the One Great Hour of Sharing offering:
The first offering collected by the Presbyterian churches for the victims of World War II was in 1947.
In 1949, church leaders from several Protestant denominations began working together to promote this effort.
The major radio networks broadcast a show called "One Great Hour" on Saturday, March 26, 1949. It is estimated that over 75,000 churches participated the next day.
The offering officially became "One Great Hour of Sharing" in 1950.
The One Great Hour of Sharing Offering will be collected on Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday.
Celebrate Life!
George
