PWS&D – Today is Presbyterian World Service & Development (PWS&D) Sunday, the Sunday on which we highlight and pray for the work of Presbyterian World Service and Development, our national church’s relief and development agency. PWS&D works through ecumenical partner agencies to provide funding for both emergency relief and longer-term development projects all around the world. All of these projects aim to assist people in need in a variety of ways, as an expression of God’s concern and care. Because of government regulations, PWS&D receives no funding from Presbyterians Sharing; rather, it raises its funds separately.
