Catalyst Grants
One way that we live our our vision to be the church that goes to the nations and is for the city is through the financial support of trusted ministry partners. In addition to support through our yearly budget, Christ Church offers Catalyst Grants- funding for organizations to specifically launch new initiatives, expand in new ways, or meet unexpected needs.
This Fall, we had the blessing of giving over $160,000 in Catalyst Grants to address six strategic areas, with the potential of giving more this October through your generosity.
