2017 Five Teaching Trips and the Thanksgiving Offering


Westover Church has taken a special offering at Thanksgiving for many years. The idea of this has been driven by our “thankfulness” to God for the privilege of working with Him in the world. We also seek to show our thankful hearts for those who have represented Westover by their faithful service on the mission field.

When Reverend Paul Chang asked for our help in sending Westover leaders to teach at the Cambodia School of Mission throughout 2017 we happily sought to honor his request. In 2016 we dedicated the Thanksgiving Offering to go towards this teaching/discipling ministry. But in a change from our traditional Thanksgiving Offering, we established that we will continue to take donations for it through September 30, 2017.

As with any ministry the power of prayer is a much needed, powerful and cherished component. Please join us in praying for these leaders as they prepare the curriculums for there times of teaching. And please pray for the students as they seek to grow in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For every part, may it bring glory to God!
