UNIFIED MISSION GIVING
To The Mission of the Presbytery, Synod, and General Assembly
Unified Mission Giving is a way our churches all can participate in supporting PC(USA) mission. Here in Washington Presbytery we combine the Unified Mission Giving money from churches that send it. We then send 14% of the combined total to the General Assembly to help support General Assembly mission; and we send 1% of it to Synod of the Trinity to help support Synod mission. The remaining 85% stays here for use in our Washington Presbytery mission budget.Please note that these are mission funds, and are separate from per capita contributions.
