The United Christian Missionary SocietyThe United Christian Missionary Society (The UCMS) was incorporated in 1920 as a not-for-profit organization under the laws of the State of Ohio. Formed as a merger of The American Christian Missionary Society (1849), The Christian Woman's Board of Mission (1874), and The Foreign Christian Missionary Society (1875), it carried out the ministries of these former bodies until restructured in 1968. The United Christian Missionary Society is now a holding company, responsible for the investing and managing of assets for the benefit of the Division or Homeland Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the Division of Overseas Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The United Christian Missionary Society, which has eight Trustees and four Officers, has no active employees. Four Trustees are nominated by each of the two Divisions. They are elected by the General Board of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and serve a term of four years.
