Mission Initiative: Joining Hearts & Hands

Joining Hearts & Hands, mandated by the 214th General Assembly (2002), has been a six-year campaign in partnership with individuals, congregations and presbyteries to raise $40 million for national church growth and the expansion of our mission work abroad. Although Joining Hearts & Hands gave its final report and closed the books on new pledges at the 218th General Assembly (2008), payments toward existing pledges will be accepted through December 31, 2012.
