To honor Val’s dedication and contributions to Christian education, we invite event participants to contribute to the Val Murphy Offering at the 2026 APCE Annual Event. Val’s love for nurturing disciples lives on through your Annual Event donations: in the scholarship recipients who experience the Annual Event; in the local mission project (see information about the 2026 local mission project); and in the continued mission of APCE’s diversity initiatives, to build a more just and equitable organization and influence the faith communities we serve. The Val Murphy Annual Event Offering – is shared between a local mission project (25%) and scholarships (75%). This year’s local mission is SHIM, which provides food, clothing, and services to people in need in Pittsburgh’s southern suburban neighborhoods. This offering will be received in person during the Annual Event or you may include your donation here.
