Share Sunday Appeal - God's kind of hospitality.
Support vulnerable people to share hot meals and reconnect with their community.
Everyone is welcome at our tables
Share Sunday.
Share Sunday is an opportunity for the whole of the Uniting Church to acknowledge the vital community services undertaken by our agencies, parish missions, presbyteries and congregations.
It is also an invitation to continue to explore how we can partner together as we respond to Christ’s calling to serve humanity seeking to create an inclusive, connected and just world.
This year, the focus of our Share Sunday resources is hospitality, around the theme of ‘God’s Kind of Hospitality’.
The suggested date for congregations to hold a Share Sunday Service is on Sunday 28 August however you can choose to hold a service at any time.
