A Dollar for Missions
2023 Approved DFM Projects
On January 24, CID’s Board of Directors established a list of projects to receive Dollar for Missions (DFM) funds during the year 2023. The projects are listed in priority order. These projects will be funded, one at a time starting with the first, up to the board-designated dollar amount shown.
| Amount | Project | Status |
| $30,000 | Immanuel, Springfield, half a year of funding for vicar working largely on new church start | Cancelled; no vicar assigned. |
| $30,000 | St. John, Beardstown, half a year of funding for vicar doing outreach in Spanish | Cancelled; no vicar assigned. |
| $30,000 | Immanuel, Springfield, other half-year of funding for vicar working largely on new church start | Cancelled; no vicar assigned. |
| $30,000 | St. John, Beardstown, other half-year of funding for vicar doing outreach in Spanish | Cancelled; no vicar assigned. |
| $35,000 | University, Champaign, for purchase of 12-passenger van | Funded! |
| $2,500 | Augment pay for Prison Ministry at Lincoln and Logan Correctional Centers | Funded! |
| $20,000 | Payments for pastors visiting four new prisons or county jails in 2024 | Currently Funding |
| $200,000 | General support of budgeted CID mission efforts |
As sufficient Dollar for Missions contributions are received to fund each project or phase of a project, the District will switch subsequent Dollar for Missions contributions to support the next item on the list. With the Lord’s blessing, everything on the list for 2023 will be fully funded!
Keep checking this page of the CID website to see what your Dollars for Missions are doing at present. And please keep praying for all of CID’s missions as well as those especially being supported through a Dollar for Missions!
