Bishop’s visitation offering

The Bishop’s Visitation Offering is designated for the mission of the Diocese of Missouri: Our partners in Lui Diocese are eager to build a Diocesan Conference Center where people can come from all around the Church in Lui to teach and learn, to be together, and to collaborate. Half of the offering will go toward supporting this priority of theirs. Pockets of dire need and poverty exist within the borders of the Diocese of Missouri, in urban locales and rural. Half of the offering will go toward seed money for mission within our own diocese.

Task Force for the Hungry

Task Force for the Hungry speaks and acts on behalf of hungry people, funds food ministries, raises awareness about hunger and poverty issues, and serves as a resource to food ministries within the Diocese of Missouri.

Habitat for Humanity

The Bishop's Staff and member congregations contribute hundreds of hours each year to Habitat for Humanity.

Christ Church Cathedral's Christmas Gift to Fraser Cathedral, Lui, Sudan: Roof Project

The roof of Fraser Cathedral in Lui is in terrible shape. It leaks profusely during the rainy season and traps heat in during the 110-degree weather of the dry season. Bishop Stephen has asked for our assistance in providing a new roof so the community can gather for worship and other meetings. This offering will be collected through January 2012.
