The Mission Endowment Fund at St. Thomas was established to provide startup funds for new mission projects within the congregation and extra support for existing missional ministries. The primary purpose of the Mission Endowment Fund is to provide funding in three categories: special needs at St. Thomas Lutheran Church, outreach in our local area, and mission around the world.  It is a perpetual fund that distributes only its income. Distributions are made only to programs or projects not already supported by regular offerings. The Mission Endowment Fund Committee meets four times a year to distribute income from the mission endowment. Any member of the congregation may apply for a grant. Ask the church office if you need help with the application form. Please return the completed form to the church office. Click here for the application form.
