Disciples Mission Fund is a ministry by which congregations, regions, institutions of higher education and general units share in the mission of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). This ministry is a faithful witness of receiving, caring and giving in Christian community.

Disciples Mission Fund, formerly known as Basic Mission Finance, receives contribution from more than 2,800 Disciples congregations to support the worldwide mission of the church. This is done through annual contributions to Disciples Mission Fund and through Special Offerings received at Easter, Pentecost, Thanksgiving and Christmas. New to Disciples Mission Fund is the designated distribution of these four Special Offerings.

Special Offering recipients include:

EASTER: for general ministries implementation of Disciples Imperative to strengthen congregational life.

PENTECOST: for new church development, divided equally between the region in which the offering is received and general new church ministry.

THANKSGIVING: for higher education institutions who are responsible for the theological education of the church's leaders.

CHRISTMAS: for regional ministries in the region where the funds are contributed for implementation of the church's imperative: To strengthen congregational life for this mission.

Our Mission as Disciples is to be and to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, witnessing, loving and serving from our doorsteps to the ends of the Earth (Acts 1:8).
