Grace Offering is our annual contribution to support the outreach ministries of Park Avenue Church.

We are preparing for our Grace Offering on Easter Sunday, April 20, with a financial goal of $165,350 to fund our outreach ministries locally and globally. We are calling on everyone to give generously, as this represents almost 8 times our regular weekly budget. We commend our Park Avenue family for your generosity. Since initiating the Grace Offering eight years ago, you have contributed over $1,550,000 to our outreach ministries!

This year, in addition to our ongoing mission points, we are partnering with one new missionary team in Rio Branco, Brazil! We pray that these outreach efforts will continue to spread the message of Jesus and show God's love and compassion to those around us.

Rio Branco Team
Edinelson, Ivan & Erica, and João & Alana

The Rio Branco team is newly supported by Park Avenue this year! 

The Rio Branco mission team arrived in January 2025 to establish the first-ever Church of Christ in Rio Branco, Brazil. Three families - Edinelson, Moisés & Erica (with daughter Isabela), and João & Alana - are strategically settled across different neighborhoods to reach the entire city. After months of preparation in Brasilia, they’ve begun making contacts with potential converts, held their first worship service on January 26th, and are exploring options for meeting spaces in schools and public buildings to expand their pioneering ministry.
