Description
The World Communion Offering Grant Program, offered by the Presbyterian Mission Agency, helps Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) congregations and mid councils strengthen local mission and ministry. It supports practical, community-based projects that reflect reconciliation as experienced at Christ’s Table and connect with the causes supported by the World Communion Offering.
Projects must align with one or more of five focus areas: racial justice, gender justice, peacemaking, global witness, and ecumenical and interfaith relationships. Funding can help launch new ministry initiatives or expand and strengthen existing programs. Congregations and mid councils may apply individually or collaborate with other PC(USA) councils, community organizations, ecumenical partners, interfaith organizations, or other ministry partners.
