SPECIAL OFFERING

Each year in February, congregations across the United States and Canada collect a Special Offering for Week of Compassion. While many congregations choose to collect their offering during this designated week, the offering fuels Week of Compassion's work and witness throughout the whole year!  

Funds received through the offering enable Disciples through Week of Compassion to respond to disaster when it occurs, working with partners to provide solidarity grants to meet urgent needs of emergency supplies, water, shelter, and food.

The annual Special Offering – observed in most churches during the last two Sundays in February – is set aside for congregations to lift up and celebrate this important work that we do together not just in domestic and international disaster response, but in refugee and immigrant response, and sustainable development funding worldwide.


Each year, Week of Compassion creates a Resource Guide to help churches engage this Special Offering. The Guide contains theme reflections to use in worship planning, activity ideas for all ages, conversation starters on generosity and world concerns, and more.  We also send out posters and bulletin inserts, and create social media and promotional materials for congregations.

New offering materials are available each year, and the Archive provides previous years' materials for use anytime. We are always grateful to lift up the stories, connection, and ministry of Week of Compassion.
