Celebrate Golden Cross Sunday
May 6, 2015
(PLEASE NOTE THAT GOLDEN CROSS WAS DISSOLVED IN 2017)
Golden Cross is a ministry that reaches out in love to the laity in our Annual Conference who are experiencing financial difficulty due to excessive medical expenses. Each year, Golden Cross has impacted the lives of numbers of families in the NC Conference. Each outreach effort represented someone active in his or her local church - people just like each of us - who in a moment of struggle found means of grace and love coming from “their” church. Let us work to extend this critical ministry. We can, but we need your help! The local church is offered the opportunity to make a huge difference in how many laity can be helped. Please prayerfully consider giving to this ministry of compassion that reaches out to so many in need. Medical bills can devastate the financial and emotional health of a family. At a time when so many lack adequate medical coverage, Golden Cross offers the laity in our Conference not only financial assistance, but the hand and heart of hope. To help others with their needs, simply make a gift to Golden Cross through your local church. 100% of your gift will go to someone in the midst of deep crisis and you will, as Paul states, bear the burden of another and so fulfill the law of Christ. For any questions or more information, call: Golden Cross Director -Rev. Thomas R. Hunter (336) 368-4548
