Like many churches, we have a special offering on the 4th sunday of every month to serve the mercy needs of congregation and community. It is a great way to highlight in the worship service the call to serve the poor, oppressed, downtrodden, and outcast in our midst. Here is a simple liturgy we use to introduce the offering. It is usually taken up during the last song which often focuses on similar themes.
