contributions to the network

Thank you for being a part of the Upper Mississippi Valley (UMV) Network. Following is information on providing financial support to the Alliance of Reformed Churches and the UMV Network.  

Churches are asked to support the denomination and network with partnership offerings.  These are percentage-based and can be based on your budget or your actual income.  Some churches prefer to budget a set amount and send a consistent amount each time, while others prefer to see what their actual income was and provide support based on that figure.  Either way is fine, we simply ask that you share as partners and friends in Christ.

The Alliance is to receive 1% and they prefer that offerings be made on a monthly basis. Checks can be mailed to:

Alliance of Reformed Churches
100 Pine St, Suite 155
Zeeland, MI 49464

Online giving is also an option and more information on this is located on their website at arc21.org/give


The UMV Network is to receive 2% and support can be provided quarterly or monthly.  Checks can be mailed to:

Upper Mississippi Valley Network
℅ Bethel Reformed Church
29557 Hickory Ave
Aplington, IA 50604

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for your faithful partnership.
