It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, and we’re celebrating First Presbyterian Church Dalton in Dalton, GA.
Each March, the congregation honors Fred Rogers' birthday with a "Love Your Neighbor" theme.
This year, they turned that celebration into a full congregational giving campaign built around the Presbyterian Giving Catalog. The church’s youth painted wooden animal cut-outs, Sunday school lessons explored the real-life benefits of raising farm animals and the congregation decorated custom donation collection boxes. A children's sermon tied it all together, connecting Mr. Rogers' teachings about neighborly love to families around the world who could benefit from their generosity.
It's a beautiful reminder that when a congregation asks, "Won't you be my neighbor?" the answer can reach farther than any of us might imagine.
