The North Central Foundation

Our Goal

The goal of this initiative is simple: to provide ministry grants to NCD congregations for the purposes of church revitalization, church multiplication, and pastoral development. We hope to raise and give away $1,000,000 for this project. Please pray with us as we move forward together. We know that this a modest investment and that much more is needed to strengthen existing churches and start new ones.

Foundation Grants

Foundation grants are only given to NCD churches, and are used to help fund strategic ministry actions like

• • Seminary scholarships for aspiring NCD or EFCA pastors
  • Pastoral residents and ministry interns
  • Church assessment and peacemaking support
  • New church plants and church planting residents
  • All people initiatives and evangelism training
  • Leadership retreats and preaching workshops
  • AV equipment, facility renovation, etc.

We invite churches to view the Foundation as a missions outreach and to regularly invest a portion of the church’s missions budget in the Foundation. Likewise, we invite NCD pastors and church leaders to invest regulary in this project from their own personal resources. We need your partnership, invite your financial support, and look forward to hearing your ministry grant suggestions.

If you have questions or would like to suggest a ministry grant for one of our NCD congregations, please reach out to Paul Anderson, NCD Director of Resource Development and Administration, at paul.anderson@ncdefca.org.
