This commission develops our mission budget adn interprets what those missions are doing for the congregation. This commission interprets the mission of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to the congregation. This commission lifts up the special offerings of the Presbyterian Church for the congregation. This commission develops the annual commitment program, and the leadership for Consecration Sunday.
