“Hands-on” Mission Work

Our church reaches
out into the world through our gifts to Disciples Mission Fund.
Together with other Disciples churches around the world, we pool our money
to support ministries both at home and abroad. These gifts support
our overseas missionaries through the Department of Overseas Ministries.
The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) supports missions in Latin
America, Asia, Africa, Europe and Australia. Our Greater Kansas City
region sponsors mission partners in Haiti and Venezuela.
Disciples Mission
Fund gifts also support our ministries in North America, including
programs for local churches such as congregational growth and stewardship,
resources for men’s and women’s fellowship groups and assistance with
children and youth ministries. We also support higher education at
Disciples-related colleges, universities and seminaries.
Our congregation is
one of 80 churches in the Greater Kansas City Region of the Christian
Church (Disciples of Christ).
Part of our Disciples
Mission Fund dollars support our regional ministries including inner-city
mission projects like the DREAM Center and the Together Center. We
also support local church programs including ministerial relocation,
crisis intervention and pastoral care for clergy.
The Greater Kansas
City region also operates Tall Oaks Camp and Conference Center in Linwood,
Kansas. Summer camps for children and youth (K-12), 20-something
(young adults), and Grandparents Camp are offered along with year-round
retreats. |
