Please join us after worship service on Sunday, April 27, 2025, for our annual Church World Service CROP Walk. We will be walking around Southside Park. While 75% of the funds raised will go to support Church World Service’s world-wide mission of assisting in disasters, helping displaced people, addressing hunger and poverty, and advocating for those unable to help themselves, the remaining 25% will support South Sacramento Interfaith Partnership. As you know, some fifteen Parkview members have been volunteering at SSIP since 2022.

Founded in 1946 as an ecumenical approach to rebuilding war-torn Europe and Asia, Church World Service today is a cooperative ministry of 37 denominations, including Presbyterian Church (USA).
