Our Story......In 1955 the Mission Development Certificate Program was born into the Presbyterian Church. But little did the Board of Trustees know when they began the Mission Development Certificate and Loan Program, that their planning and stewardship would have such a profound and reaching effect on the growth of churches and mission in the Northwest. The Trustees realized that the word of God was rapidly spreading throughout the Northwest and that expansion of the Presbyterian Church meant growth in many ways. Growth meant expansion of the existing churches as well as the creation of new churches where none had existed before. Today, 50 years later, the Mission Development Certificate and Loan Program has approved loans totaling more than $40 million dollars. As Presbyterians we have an opportunity to support the churches in our Synod family who are still growing by purchasing Mission Development Certificates. By purchasing the Mission Development Certificates, the Presbyterian community would be showing thier faith and support of our entire family and ultimately contributing to the mission which began over 50 years ago. Join the nearly 700 participating Presbyterians who own Mission Development Certificates.
