Where the Money Goes!


Some of our apportioned giving ($1,446) goes to the Missouri Annual Conference for something called Connectional Ministries. This is led by Kim Jenne and covers Annual Conference, Boundaries, Communications, Adult Discipleship, Safe Sanctuaries, Leadership Development, and Laity Training.

This ministry includes planning Annual Conferences and offers a multitude of training surrounding topics such as PPRC success, sexual harassment, and safety. They are also responsible for The Missouri Methodist publication, which can now be viewed online. You can also subscribe to the magazine to get a paper subscription.


Next Generation Ministries is another Missouri Annual Conference apportionment. The Office of Next Generation Ministries is responsible for children and youth discipleship ministries, camping, campus-based ministries, Next Generation Ministries team, Crossroads college-age internships, youth ministry, youth leadership team and United Methodist Men. Our apportioned amount for this ministries is $1,773.


The District Superintendents’ Fund covers such things as salaries, travel, professional development, health benefits, retirement, insurance, and moving expenses for the nine District Superintendents in Missouri. The $2,016 apportioned to us for this fund allows us to contribute to the great work our D.S. does in the Gateway Region.
