NEW - 25-26 Children’s Missions Project

 

Every year, a special project is chosen to ignite hearts in Western PA — educating children about the Great Commission and inspiring them to play a part in God’s global mission! This exciting initiative not only teaches kids the importance of sharing the Gospel but also empowers them to support the vital work of our International Workers around the world.

This year’s project will be Oasis of Grace, bringing hope to children in Western Asia! Through Oasis of Grace, International Workers D&K are launching a vibrant weekly program designed especially for children who have lost one or both parents — offering them joy, love, and the hope of Jesus in the midst of deep pain.

They will minister to these children through crafts, games, music lessons, Bible stories, and so much more! For many, this will be the first time they hear about the love of Jesus!

Let’s bring light to a dark place. Will you join us? The program will run from June 1, 2025 - May 31, 2026. Give online here or mail checks to WPA District Of C&MA, P.O. Box 395, Punxsutawney, PA 15767. Make the check payable to WPA District of C&MA and designate that it is for “Oasis of Grace”.

We have many resources to help you promote this project in your church. There is a craft that you can do with the children in your church and get them excited, plus a video, PowerPoint, and brochure. For more information on any of these, including the password for the video, please contact Meredith Cowman at cowmanm@cmawpa.org. This video cannot be livestreamed or posted online for the safety of our International Workers and to not compromise their ministry.
