What Christian Charities Do You Donate To Over Easter

Hi Lee. I set up an recurring donation every month for St Jude’s Children’s Hospital.

I do periodically give to Samaritan’s Purse which does disaster relief worldwide.

Lately been focusing on my church’s ministries locally (foster care and adoption services) and globally with our missionaries.

The Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East

Hi there,

This Easter I donated to the Salvation Army and the Christian Blind Mission (Home | CBM).

I usually give donations to a couple of various charities around Easter and Christmas time.

What did you do this Easter?

Regards
Lee

What did I do? Easter isn't for another two days. Are you experiencing some kind of problem with the space/time continuum?

I think in fairness the OP related to the Great Easter Triduum.

Interesting. I'd never even heard of such a thing before.

I give to a faith-based mental health treatment agency, to my church, and to beggars on the street.

So I want to make sure everyone understands that I am not critical of how other people give to charity. What I do, is simply how I see it.

I personally do not like the idea that I only help others when there is a special occasion. Somehow that just rubs me the wrong way.

So I have my charities as an automatic withdraw from my checking account monthly.

Currently, I support 3 charities. As a general rule, I don't tell people what charities I give to, but I will tell you what they do. One helps young abused women. Another is specific charity that helps people caught in human trafficking. And the last specializes in international disaster relief.

Why don't I tell people what charities I give to? I don't know. I just never have. Maybe it's just me, but I feel weird if I say "I give to XXX charity!", and people say "oh you are such a good man"... yeah I wish. No, I'm a screwed up man, who is just trying to follow G-d. You just don't know me yet.

So I don't have to worry, oh is such-an-such a day coming up, do I have any money to give? Because I've been giving year-around.

Also, I picked the charities I support, based on what really felt was important in my life.

I would suggest you do the same. If there is something in this world, that really bothers you, then find a charity that deals with that thing, and donate to it.
