Disciples Vision is "to be a faithful, growing church that demonstrate true community, deep Christian spirituality and a passion for justice (Micah 6:8)."

To realize this Vision, we need to achieve our Mission Imperative "to strengthen congregations for mission." In a rapidly changing world, this means changing the way we do church to remain relevant to God's people.

God blesses us with abundance. To achieve Disciples 2020 Vision of 1,000 new congregations, 1,000 transformed existing congregations and ordaining more than 225 new ministers a year the General Board asks Disciples congregations to budget 10% of their offerings for Disciples Mission Fund.

If your congregation already includes Disciples Mission Fund in the annual budget that¿s Great! If not, please prayerfully consider Disciples Mission Fund as part of your annual outreach budget.
