Covenant World Relief Materials Available

CHICAGO, IL (October 15, 2015) – The Covenant World Relief (CWR) fall emphasis materials have been mailed to churches.

Each packet of sample materials includes a cover letter, the CWR fall 2015 update, bulletin inserts, brochure, poster, offering envelopes, DVD, soup-can lid and label, and a Kids Helping Kids: Clean Water postcard, which also has additional material about the project online. Items can be ordered or downloaded.

A special mailing that includes a cover letter in Spanish is being sent to Spanish-speaking congregations. “If materials are needed in honduras-girl-waterSpanish, please let us know,” said Chrissy Palmerlee.

Many churches have an emphasis on Covenant World Relief around Thanksgiving. “This is tradition, but we welcome and need Covenant World Relief emphasis anytime during the year,” Palmerlee said.

Questions, comments, and suggestions for Covenant World Relief resources can be directed to Palmerlee by emailing her or calling (773) 907-3301.
