Retired Ministers and Widows Appreciation – Reformation Sunday

Click To View Video

Dear Pastors and Ministry Colleagues:

 

An anticipated event in the Church of God is the time of year when we honor our retired ministers and widows. We call it Reformation Sunday, and this year it is scheduled for Sunday, October 27, 2024.

 

The Church of God loves and appreciates those who have given their lives in service to the Kingdom. Aside from their eventual Heavenly reward, we can bless them as they are here with us through a generous offering to thank them for their decades of anointed service toward winning the lost for Jesus Christ.

 

Reformation Sunday has been a godsend for so many of our elderly retirees and widows who have sacrificed material blessings in favor of assisting a needy family, contributing to church building funds, or being bi-vocational. Their examples have demonstrated to generations what true dedication is toward winning the lost. Twenty-five percent of what is given by the Church for Reformation Sunday will go for emergency assistance, while seventy-five percent furnishes a financial Christmas gift.

WAYS to GIVE

  • Please consider sharing the special video from General Overseer Gary Lewis (by clicking the image above) with your congregation prior to receiving a special offering. Send the gift marked “Reformation Sunday” to Church of God International Offices, P.O. Box 2430, Cleveland, TN, 37320-2430.

  • Personally give by clicking on the donate button below

 

Thank you for supporting these very worthy servants of the Kingdom with a Reformation Sunday offering. May our giving reveal Christ to those whose witness has won multitudes to Christ!

Dear Ministry Colleague, We have seen too many reports of ministerial burnout, dropout, and far too often moral failure.
