January Special Offering

Last updated Jan 12, 2010
January's special offering goes to Philadelphia Mennonite High School, located at 860 North 24th Street.

Its mission is to provide students with an excellent Christ-centered education that equips students for leadership, service and peacemaking.  Every family at the school contributes 20 hours of volunteer time per school year.  It costs $9,930 to educate a student per year, but the majority of students receive a subsidy of $6,480 provided by school fund-raising.   As we heard from Dr Barbara Moses in November, this year's recipient of our annual Peace Prize, it has been years since there has been a fight at the school, and each year starts with a new student camping retreat, and they have a 100% college acceptance rate.   To read more, go to their website at http://www.pmhs98.org/home.html

Healthcare Reform

A Justice Issue
      A Moral Imperative
Get informed and do something!
We at Germantown Mennonite Church believe universal healthcare is an expression of what the Bible teaches--caring for the least of the least--and of our deeply-held American values of sharing and compassion.
We invite other faith communities to join us in an informed discussion and active pursuit calling on our elected officials to do the right thing.
