 Frequently Asked Questions Synod of the Covenant Mission to the U.S.A. -OCTOBER 11, 2014 - NOVEMBER 8, 2014
(Contact Doris Evans - D.Evans@synodofthecovenant.org) What is Mission to the USA? The Mission to the U.S.A. Program of the Synod of the Covenant is a short-term opportunity for churches to be on the receiving end of hearing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Individual congregations host a Christian leader from an ecumenical partner denomination for five weeks. The "mission partner" becomes a missionary to that congregation, serving on the staff as a parish associate.

Be a part of something bigger through the CWS Blankets Program. This is your chance to help and your chance to show you care!
Last year alone over 4500 blankets were distributed all across the United States to respond to the wildfires, flooding, and hurricanes as well as to those who are economically disadvantaged.
Your congregation or group can send a powerful message to people in these tragic situations: "You matter to us."
We know more disasters are sure to come, so let's work together to put faith in action and show those who need it most that we do care and we are here to help!
Plan your Blanket Sunday offering now for Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, or any day! Order your Blankets resources today. Contact Andrew Gifford at the CWS Ohio Regional Office: 614-481-4416 or agifford@cwsglobal.org. Find out more at cwsglobal.org/blankets.
