Audio Offering: August 2024

Hi, hitting the heart button is a great & free way to support these Offerings. This is the audio version of the Offering for August 2024, “Stealing mercy back from the gods.” If you’re looking for ways to support Palestinian people in a direct and material way, consider making a contribution to Mariam Ahmad’s fundraiser, a mother of five who is living in a tent and struggling to provide food and clean water for her children. In Mariam’s words, “with a newborn in my arms the gravity of the situation is heightened as I yearn to provide him with the nourishment and care he deserves…Please find it in your hearts to stand with us, to show mercy and compassion to a family in need.” Offerings is entirely reader and listener supported. If you love this work, please consider becoming a paying subscriber for as little as $5 a month or $50 a year.
