April Special Offering: Disciples Mission Fund
When your congregation discerned you wanted to become a more faithful steward of both your resources and creation, your pastor reached out to Green Chalice to guide you through the process and connect you with resources. With the help of Green Chalice, you are thinking about the sustainability of your ministry in new ways. Your support of Disciples Mission Fund makes this resource available to congregations across the United States and Canada.
Last year, the National Benevolent Association announced its inaugural SENT Cohort. The cohort consists of 10 members who attended the SENT Seminar in 2020 and demonstrated an interest to work with NBA’s Social Entrepreneurship team on a deeper level in order to launch and grow their new social service organizations. SENT participants develop their ministry beyond a one-time seminar through a cohort of supportive relationships, interactive learning, and creative partners. Your generous gifts to DMF directly support this NBA SENT Cohort of faith-filled, innovative leaders serving as a witness to God’s love in the world.
Lori Tapia, National Pastor for Hispanic Ministries in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), hosts weekly conversations with church leaders to provide resources, training, and support to pastors and congregations. Disciples Mission Fund helps Obra Hispana support new and existing Hispanic churches across the United States and Canada.
Individuals and congregations like yours make regular contributions to Disciples Mission Fund. Those funds then support your region, our general ministries, global ministries, and our colleges and seminaries. The Easter Offering fuels the general and global efforts of our church. See www.disicplesmissionfund.org for more information about how DMF works.
Your April Special Offering gift to Disciples Mission Fund helps the church do more together than it can alone, spreading God’s Good News from your doorsteps to the ends of the earth.
The Rev. Cara Gilger
Director of Communications, Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
