Designated Gifts On the congregational remittance form there will be a box that reads: Mid-America Ministries (formerly known as Area support) Congregations can designate an amount in this category that will be sent in full to the Region to help fund missions, ministries and staffing closer to home. Remittance Forms and valuable information and video are available at:

What will that funding accomplish? 19%

Draft proposal of the 2016 Regional Budget (for illustration purposes only) Total Income: $824,975 $578,350 – anticipated income from congregations (after $154,000 from Disciples Mission Fund (41% of $376,000 congregations designate only to DMF) $350,00 formerly given to Areas and now designated as Mid-America Ministries (formerly known as Area support) $74,350 from other forms of congregational giving Balance from all other income sources: $246,625

How might this work? 225 Congregations 11,633 average worship attendance (2013) If every congregation gave $40 designated to DMF and $35.00 to Mid-America Ministries (formerly known as Area support) or $75 per year for every member normally in worship, there would be ample funding to grow support for congregational mission and ministry and support the work of the Christian Church Disciples of Christ! $75/year per worshiper
