The Rest of the Story…

Thanksgiving Offering

You’ve probably heard of Lauren Hill, the college freshman basketball player with terminal brain cancer, but have you heard the story of the opposing team? They’re one of ours, a Disciples college—Hiram College in Hiram, Ohio. Hiram College is part of “a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world.” This is the kind of college, and the kind of ministry, that you support when you support the Thanksgiving Offering for Disciples colleges & universities, seminaries and divinity houses. Many of our current leaders and pastors come out of this tradition; your gifts help equip leaders for the next generation.      Check out the story about Hiram College on the region’s Facebook page; scroll down to posts dated November 9. While you’re there, click ‘like’ to see our posts in your News Feed. You’ll also need to like our posts occasionally to keep our posts showing up in your News Feed, because that’s the way Facebook works.

     Please give generously to this year’s Thanksgiving Offering which will be received on the Sunday of November 16.
