Each year, a portion of First Christian’s budget is designated for outreach giving. Some of those funds support local organizations, and some is sent to the Disciples Mission Fund, the common fund of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The funds we share with DMF support work of our denomination around the world, through long-term mission partners–like Global Ministries–and short-term disaster recovery efforts–like Week of Compassion.
