Donations:

Oak Hill participates in three denomination wide offerings: One Great Hour of Sharing, Peacemaking Offering, and the Christmas Joy Offering. Our Peacemaking Offering in 2009 collected $893. $100 was sent to Noble Road Presbyterian Church in Cleveland. Noble Road is raising money to build a school and church in Konobo District in Liberia in West Africa. The second $100 was donated to the Central Asia Institute who have been building schools in rural Pakistan and Afghanistan since 1993. The schools concentrate on the education of females in these two countries.
