THE TWO CENTS A MEAL PROGRAM is the way congregations, families and individuals in the Presbytery of St. Augustine remember and support our sisters and brothers in mission in Jamaica. We are collecting our quarterly offering TODAY! Our quarterly collection supports the following programs: Medical Mission – each June, doctors, nurses and dentists travel to Jamaica to treat more than a thousand patients in need. Youth Exchange – a joint youth exchange between American and Jamaican youth is held during the summer. The entire group spends a week in mission in each country. Adults Exchange – Every other year in the fall, members of our Presbytery host adults from Jamaica here and during the intervening years, members of our Presbytery are hosted in Jamaica. For reference: two cents a meal for 3 months for 1 person = $5.40, for 2 persons = $10.80, for 3 persons = $16.20, for 4 persons = $21.60. You may bring your change or write a check to SJPC with “2 cents a meal” in the memo line. Thank you for your continued contributions to this quarterly offering!
