As many know, this fall the Presbytery of Philadelphia will be celebrating its 300th Anniversary. Recently, we were visited by representatives of the celebration committee who spoke to us about a very important part of this celebration: the goal of raising $300,000 to support restorative justice programs within the Presbytery.

I have asked that GPC raise $5000 towards this effort and I want to thank those who have already responded. To date I have received checks and commitments of over $1500, so we are on our way. I would ask that all give to this cause, as it truly is worthy of our support.
