This Mission Grant has been established through an endowment fund by Dr. Dean and Mrs. Keitha Thomson. Grants will be awarded annually to a member of a United Methodist church or a member of a recently disaffiliated UM church who is in need of funding for a mission trip. Mission trips may be located locally, nationally, or internationally with a focus on global health, including but not limited to medical needs, or disaster and recovery efforts. The mission trip work must be considered to be of a beneficial nature to the larger community and an integral part of a long-range plan for growth and outreach. 

The mission grant programs opens January 1st and the deadline to apply is March 31st.
