Updates

Week of Compassion updates are the quickest way you can find out how the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and its partners are responding to emergencies and disasters, as well as ongoing, long-term humanitarian needs, throughout the world. They are available by e-mail, and you can register right here to receive them electronically. We encourage you to share these updates in your congregation and with your friends as you have opportunity and occasion. A 36" x 48" interactive map poster is available from the Week of Compassion office and provides an excellent space to feature current updates at your church. Call (317.713.2442) or e-mail Elaine at ecleveland@woc.disciples.org to receive a complimentary copy.
