Educate a Child at GA222
The Educate a Child Initiative will be present at General Assembly in Portland in June. The joint national/international initiative will give a progress report to the Assembly and will be collaborating with other ministry areas and leaders throughout the church on critical issues at the intersection of education and public health like we have witnessed in Flint, Michigan, and La Oroya, Peru. Come by the Compassion Peace and Justice and World Mission exhibits in the exhibit hall to learn more.
Educate a Child at YOUR Church or Presbytery
