Saturday morning, General Synod recognized 48 congregations as Missional Impact Partners for their financial support of the mission and ministry of the RCA.
“The lion’s share of the RCA’s ministry is funded through churches who give above and beyond assessments,” said Ken Neevel, director of development and facilitation. “Together, we’re making a difference.”
In 2015, these Missional Impact Partners contributed at least $40,000 or 10 percent of their budget to support RCA mission and ministry:
