Mission Agency Percentage

The Mission Agency Services (MAS) 5% contribution, as well as the National Partnership Services (NPS) 5% contribution, will be applied according to the following guidelines:

    • When a donor indicates new support, even if it is the first time we have received funds.
    • When funds begin coming from a donor on a regular basis, even if the check memo continues to say ‘gift,’ unless it is specifically designated such as ‘gift for building fund’ or some other specific project. Regular basis does not necessarily mean monthly; some donors give at varying times and some even give annually.
    • All regular funds received are subject to the MAS and NPS contributions, regardless of whether they are received in personal or ministry support accounts (i.e. accounts for ongoing operations of a ministry such as a school or radio station.)
    • Funds for specific projects will be evaluated on an annual basis to determine if they have become ongoing ministry support as opposed to one-time fundraising events.

See the Harvest – Dominican Republic

See the Harvest is a ministry of the World Wide that offers church members, college students, and pastors the opportunity to See, Learn, and Do missionary work, enabling them to discern God’s call, find their place of service, and reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This ministry is led by our missionaries, Cody and Nikayla Carden.

From July 31-August 10, our team joined our missionaries, Timothy and Stephanie Germano, in the Dominican Republic. Our team assisted the Germanos with their annual English camp and helped reach out to the community there through canvassing and personal evangelism.

We praise the Lord for His wonderful work through the ministry of See the Harvest! If you would like to learn more about the ministry or future trips, please visit seetheharvest.com.

If you would like a See the Harvest team to visit you on your field, please contact Cody Carden at [email protected].
