Psalm 71 testifies that a foundation of faith established during childhood helps ensure lifelong faith and service. The patterns and lessons established during these formative years continue to bear fruit throughout a person’s life. By receiving the Pentecost Offering, you are nurturing the faith of those who are the church to come — children, youth, and young adults. Contributions may be mailed to the church payable to “First Presbyterian Church” at P.O. Box 385, Blairstown, NJ 07825 – please specify the special offering you are supporting. Contributions may also be made electronically for PC(USA) Special Offerings; simply select “Give Now” to begin.
