Money Available for Hands-on Mission Work! - Have an idea for a new Mission opportunity or special project? Download the new Application for Special Projects Fund, fill it out and turn it into the Minister for Christian Mission.
The Christian Mission Ministry would like to give money to Union Church members who wish to do hands on mission work.
The project should be for a specific one-time project or for a designated period of time and not for the ongoing funding of an agency. The project should help the less fortunate members of our society. This money should not supplement the pastoral fund nor should it supplement current church programs.
The applications will be evaluated by the Agency Committee of the Christian Mission Ministry which will make recommendations to the Ministry for its vote. |
