Missions Ministry
The mission
ministry serves to coordinate and develop the local, domestic and international
missions
outreach of NSCC. Not only does this ministry oversee the administration of
monthly support to missionaries, it also encourages sending short-term
missionaries from NSCC to the various ministries supported by NSCC. The mission
budget is separate from the Church budget and is supported through 15% of the
Church offering to the General Budget along with other designated gifts. Other
areas of ministry include correspondence, special recognition of missionaries,
prayer, furlough housing and transportation, and special missions emphases.
Special gifts for missions can be designated and placed in the regular offering
any Sunday. Some folks prefer to not have 15% of their regular offering go
to missions and instead prefer to give named amounts to the General Fund and to
the Missions Fund. Requests for such will of course be honored. For more
information concerning how to do this, please contact Treasurer John McIntyre or
Stewardship Coordinator Curt Knotick.
