  • 1/3 to local mission (the Peace Community Center)
  • 1/3 to regional mission (1000 Mission Friends strengthening existing Lutheran congregations and starting new ones in Southwestern Washington)
  • 1/3 to world mission (split between the Davis family mission in Kenya through Empowering Lives International, and ELCA World Hunger)
