The First Congregational Church of Meredith’s Mission Board is a vibrant group of caring individuals whose contributions are felt both locally and nationally as well as around the world. Our team consists of longtime members working alongside new members who come together to do Christ’s work. Meetings are on the second Tuesday evening of each month where members share in making each mission project a success. New members to our board are always welcome.

Our goal is to reach members and friends of our congregation through:
  • the Sunday morning “Mission Moments”
  • the church bulletin and
  • the monthly “Caller” newsletter in order to inform all shareholders about a variety of missions needs including dates and specific tasks to fulfill such needs, both locally & globally.

​These are the ministries that our Mission Board regularly coordinates for the church:
