Welcome to the Enough
for Everyone Global Marketplace,
where PC(USA) teams up with long-term partner A
Greater Gift (formerly SERRV
International) and mission-related alternative trade organizations to offer Presbyterians
a variety of fair trade and responsibly produced products.
The Global Marketplace first appeared as part of the Exhibit Hall of the 214th
General Assembly (2002), in Columbus, Ohio. Since that time the Global Marketplace
has become a tradition at General Assembly and other large gatherings such as
the Churchwide Gathering of Presbyterian
Women and the Presbyterian
Youth Triennium.
Your mission committee, women's group or outreach committee
may want to similarly sponsor a "mini" Global Marketplace. Likely settings are
in your congregation, at a presbytery meeting, synod training event, or other
gathering. This site is your PC(USA) link to alternative trade organizations.
Thanks for visiting!
A Special Word of Thanks
Enough for Everyone
thanks Carol Hylkema, elder, PW, GAMC member and volunteer extraordinaire from
Detroit, Mich., for expert assistance and continued partnership in creating and
implementing the Global Marketplace.
