Giving to Others: NCAMO
The National Area Capital Missions Offering (NCAMO)campaign has begun! While gifts can be given for NCAMO at any time, June through the DCBC Annual Meeting, which is scheduled for Oct. 25-26, has been designated as a time when individuals and member churches are asked to make a concerted effort to give to the missions and ministry work of the Convention.  Through NCAMO, the DCBC is able to help provide assistance for those with the greatest need as well as to support our member churches in their outreach and ministry endeavors. Please give today!
