Missions

Consolidated Missions Info

ICOC Info is seeking to organize the great amount of information now in circulation about mission churches, funding, and new church plantings for easy reference. It is unofficial and certainly incomplete; however, we hope to provide a first draft documenting the state of missions among us since the end of 2002. We greatly appreciate links to news of church plantings, missions contributions, and other missions information. Send information to editor@icocinfo.org.
