Albany Presbytery PC(USA), Mission Partners 2020-2021
“Mission Partners” are ministries/organizations
- whose work in our region complements that of congregations;
- whose beliefs, aims, and values are deemed compatible with Presbytery’s;
- and who operate independently of Albany Presbytery control.
All potential Partners must apply on an annual basis for endorsement and funding. (The application process is open to everyone.) Our Mission Committee will review all applications, determining which ones to recommend for funding, as well as the level of funding.
In some cases, employees or board members of Mission Partners are members of Albany Presbytery, or of its constituent congregations. Please direct all questions to the Mission Committee via its chair, the Rev. Ted Wright (HR)
