Carrying each other’s burdens
Galatians 6:2
“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”
Adventist Community Services (ACS) works with the local conferences and disaster response agencies to equip volunteers to serve and assist the community by providing disaster assessments, sheltering services, donation management, home reconstruction, and emotional and spiritual care.
In 2020–2021, COVID-19 caused a heavy toll on ACS Food Pantries/Centers, yet our volunteers continued to serve families and individuals who were facing challenges due to this crisis. The NAD ACS invested two million dollars to assist in providing food to our neighbors who struggled during this difficult time.
When you give to ACS and ADRA, YOU make it possible for the Adventist Church to respond immediately both nationally and internationally to help survivors of hurricanes, fires, floods, earthquakes, famine, and other crises.
Sabbath, May 14, 2022, is the date for collecting the Disaster and Famine Relief Offering. If you wish to support the Offering, please donate at your local church or online by writing on the envelope “ACS.”
We want to thank everyone for your dedicated ongoing support to Adventist Community Services, whether it is through sacrificial giving, volunteering, or prayers.
Prayer: Dear God, we give you our offering this morning thinking of those less fortunate that are going through crisis in their lives. We pray that this offering will lift the burdens of people going through struggles. We pray that our local church will be a center of influence.
