Margaret Fell Fund

The Traveling Ministries Program’s Margaret Fell Fund was created to assist monthly meetings who have members who are led to extended travel in the gospel ministry* (of more than two weeks duration). The Fund’s purpose is to cover costs accrued during extended travel such as mortgage payments, rent, health insurance, etc.  The Fund does not cover transportation costs.

*Traveling in the Gospel Ministry is visiting individuals and/or meetings without a predetermined agenda other than to be faithful to listen and to respond to the nudgings of the Spirit.


Gospel ministry is service whose goal is to encourage, support, push, or invite people to seek and respond to the guidance, teaching, and activity of the Light and Life at work in all, right now.” - Brian Drayton (On Living With a Concern for the Gospel Ministry)
