Understanding Melville Offering Funds

  1. General Fund – This supports the ongoing ministry of the local church (programs and worship) including our day-to-day expenses related to the building and staff. If you do not indicate otherwise, all contributions are distributed within this fund.
  2. Missions/Presbyterians Sharing – This is two funds and unless you indicate otherwise, any contributions with this designation are shared equally between the two. Melville Missions supports our mission partners in local, national, and international ministries and is supplemented with interest from our Memorial Fund on an annual basis. Presbyterians Sharing is the national church fund that supports the mission and ministries we do together and around the world. This includes a wide range of ministries from encouraging and equipping congregational renewal and development, to supporting inner-city, native, refugee, urban, remote and chaplaincy ministries in Canada, to sending mission personnel to work with international partners.
  3. Melville Memorial Fund – The Memorial Fund is an invested fund from which interest is withdrawn annually in support of Melville Missions. Contributions to this fund are frequently designated in memory of loved ones.
