Easter Sacrificial Offering

What is the ESO?

: Family in Christ, serving together.

The ESO (Easter Sacrificial Offering) is an opportunity for Tenth members and attenders to celebrate the sacrificial death and glorious resurrection of Christ by sacrificing financially in order to support life-giving word and deed ministries around the world. The projects often provide disaster relief, medical care for underserviced communities, orphan care and education, vocational training for women, and other similar similar services offered in the name of Christ.

Every year partner ministries send proposals to Tenth. An ad-hoc committee of Global Outreach Commission members reviews each proposal and selects several projects that align with Tenth's focus areas. The ESO committee presents the projects to the GO Commission for approval. Then the GO Commission chairs present the projects to Session for approval.
