Aiding in Mission & Outreach Programs
To better support our member churches in their mission and outreach initiatives we created the Mission and Outreach Ministry Council (MOMC). MOMC serves as the missionary agent of our member churches to provide oversight of the use of funds, to counsel churches in the area of their missionary concern, and help to stimulate the spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in ways that keep with the basic principle of the Congregational Christian Churches.
Get Involved
Our National Association grows and thrives through enthusiastic and faithful support from member churches, individual donors, foundations, corporations, and associations committed to Congregationalism. We rely on the active engagement of our member churches in the life of the National Association as they provide financial contributions, provide volunteers for leadership, and participate in the NACCC activities and events.
