“Special days in the life of the church often allow us to focus our worship, celebrations and fellowship around moments that are central to our faith.”
Disciples Mission Fund Special Day Offerings provide an opportunity to highlight specific ministries as part of our faith celebrations. There are four Disciples Mission Fund Special Day Offerings received each year during Easter, Pentecost, Thanksgiving, and Christmas seasons. In addition, there are two special recognition offering days designated for Week of Compassion (February) and Reconciliation Ministry (September). Congregations can receive these offerings during worship or budget for a special gift, and individuals can always designate their gift to DMF for any of (these).

In addition to DMF offerings, the Northern Lights Region holds an Annual Fund Campaign each year as an emphasis of the important and meaningful ways the Annual Fund (our working funds in the Region) support ministries, congregations, and clergy.

DMF Easter Special Offering 2026 – This Day: When Love Answers
The Easter Offering supports the general ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
On that first day of the week, grief and uncertainty were met with resurrection hope. Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and proclaimed, "I saw the Master!", bearing witness to a love that answered her sorrow with new life. What began as confusion and loss became a world-changing encounter with the risen Christ.
"This day" was unlike any other. Love answered Peter's searching. Love answered Mary's longing. Love answered with presence, promise, and purpose.
Through the Easter Offering, we respond to God's resurrection love by sharing in God's work in the world. As we give, we proclaim with Mary: love still answers.
The Easter Offering, received by most congregations on March 29 and April 5, 2026, provides vital support for the general ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Your generous gift helps equip college students for leadership, strengthens global mission partnerships, sustains health and social service ministries, supports the formation of new congregations, cares for pastors and chaplains, and so much more.
Your gift has the power to transform lives and extend the love of Christ around the world. Give online today or through your congregation. Thank you for making a difference.
