Missions Support Application

Dear Sister or Brother in Christ,

We at Orrville Christian Church have a desire to support the spreading of the Good News across the world. We acknowledge that there are many worthy missions to support. We currently choose to support missionaries whose doctrinal positions are in line with ours. Our goal is to support missions that are actively spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ to the world. To help us ensure this, we ask that each potential missionary/mission please fill out this application. This is to help us clarify your goals/purposes, your type of missions, your doctrines, and get to know a little about you. Please do note that we currently have a group of missionaries and missions that we support. At the present time we are not looking to add any additional long-term missions/missionaries/ministries to our list. However, we would appreciate you sharing details of your mission/ministry so that we can consider a one-time gift, and it will be nice to have this information for when we periodically review/reconsider our long-term commitments.
