Gift to the King Background
The first Gift to the King offering was received 86 years ago and was  established as a mission offering for the denomination.  The offering was initiated in  1920 by the women's organization for the builiding of two Chinese  churches, one in China and the other in San Francisco. Gift to the King has had a  positive and up-building effect on global missions through the  years.  Usually, this offering is for support of a cross-culture  project.

Advent! Christmas Trees! Tamales! La Piñata! Las Posadas! The Gift to the King! Yes, Christmas is on its way. There is no greater time of giving in the Church than during the time of Christmas. What a time of joy and celebration. The Missions Ministry Team is excited about a new non-USA mission frontier we are presenting to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. This year our Gift of the King offering emphasized our new mission frontier in Mexico.
