How to Support the Lake Titicaca Border Mission

The United Methodist General Board of Global Ministries last week announced the new Lake Titicaca Border Mission Advance project number: 3021288. FUMC Downers Grove members Jeff Wasilevich and Debbie Rissing will serve as site hosts and coordinators of this mission site for 18 months, starting in May. All gifts made in support this mission are 100% tax deductible; those made through the church will receive Advance credit for the church and the Annual Conference, and will help the church achieve its Rainbow Covenant goals.

If you'd like to support this mission, checks may be made payable to: Advance GCFA. On the memo line, write: L. Titicaca Border Mission 3021288. Checks may be dropped in the collection basket, given at the church office, or mailed to: Advance GCFA, P.O. Box 9068 GPO, New York, NY 10087-9068 (if you mail your check, please note church number 51918 on your check to ensure FUMC gets Advance credit). To make a credit card gift by phone, please call The Advance at 888-252-6174. To make an online gift, please visit the Mision Fronteras donate page.
