Congregational UCC Supports Eastern Iowa Community Bond Project

In Response to Mt. Pleasant Raid

At its May meeting, our Church Council approved providing  $5,000 from our Engagement Fund to the Eastern Iowa Community Bond Project. The Engagement Fund was the result of a significant gift a few years ago that was given so that our church should feel free to use for any initiatives that will enhance our presence in the community through our service to it, both ‘community’ and ‘service’ broadly defined.” To this money, we will be able to add $2,000 from the Iowa Conference of the United Church of Christ. Last December our Mission Board asked the Conference for a grant from their Thank Offering Fund, also to be used for the Bond Project.
