In late 1904 and 1905, CMC commissioned several missionaries (Lydia Schertz, Anna Stalter, and Martin Clifford Lehman) bound for India.
Soon after, the church began to support "home missions" in Chicago and Fort Wayne, Indiana.
By 1909, College Mennonite had begun a Working Girls Missionary Society and a sewing circle.
The two congregations continued to collaborate on children's Sunday school for a time and had a combined youth group until 1986.
Great dissatisfaction with the space as a place of worship as well as the facilities for Sunday school led to planning for a new building, one that would be jointly owned by the college and the congregation.
