Mission Seeding Grants

Mission seeding grants – a little help to grow your big idea!

District Council for Ministry Support (CMS) and Council for Lutheran Community Care (CLCC) have funds available for new ideas to encourage local outreach. $1000 and $2000* grants are available to germinate local mission initiatives in the Victorian Tasmanian District.

Like the LLL Mission Stimulus Grant the criteria centers around local focus, reaching out from the Church to engage with those who are not in the Church. There are few other criteria so you are encouraged to be innovative and bold.

Applications that incorporate co-funding or congregational contributions will be considered more favourably but 100% funding applications will also be considered.

• Prayerfully consider your ministry and mission opportunities.
• Share this brochure with key leadership teams in your congregation.
• Get your Church Council Chair to sign off

Contact Council for Ministry Support Chairperson Sabine Haeusler for more information sabine.haeusler@lca.org.au

*Grants for overtly Christian activities are capped at $1000. Grants can be allocated for up to $2000 for community activities.
