OPPORTUNITIES TO GIVE
ACS DISASTER RESPONSEWhen disaster strikes, ACSDR volunteers mobilize to serve communities in need. Funds are needed to cover expenses and to provide relief supplies.
ADVENTIST EDUCATIONAdventist education imparts far more than academic knowledge; it is a balanced development of the whole person. Adventist students outperform the national average in all subjects and in all grades tested. They also score higher than expected based on testing of their individual abilities.
The Iowa-Missouri Conference operates more than a dozen elementary schools and one high school boarding academy, Sunnydale Academy, where a central focus is helping our young people become invested in the mission of the church around the globe. You can support Adventist education in the following ways:
Combined Youth Ministries: The Combined Youth Ministries fund supports three major areas of youth ministry—Elementary Education (50%), Sunnydale Academy (25%) and Camp Heritage (25%).
Sunnydale Adventist Academy: As mission grows and facilities age, renovations and building improvements are needed. Gifts marked “Sunnydale Adventist Academy” support these capital improvements.
SAA Funding the Mission: Sunnydale Academy’s Funding the Mission student financial scholarship campaign helps ensure no student is denied a Christian education based solely on financial need. To learn more or to give online, visit sunnydale.org. To give using a tithe envelope, mark your gift “SAA Funding the Mission.”
CAMP HERITAGEThe conference operates a summer camp on the shores of the Lake of the Ozarks. Hundreds of young campers and family members come each summer to enjoy the Christian atmosphere and gain the blessing of outdoor recreation in this beautiful setting in nature. As noted above, 25% of all gifts marked “Combined Youth Ministries” go toward Camp Heritage. The camp is also in need of renovations that will enable the camp to more effectively fulfill its mission to our members and youth. To support these capital improvements, mark your gift “Camp Heritage.”
EVANGELISMEvangelism is the lifeblood of the church as we cooperate with the Holy Spirit to fulfill the Gospel commission Christ has given to us. As Seventh-day Adventists we are prophetically called to preach the gospel and share the hope of a soon coming Savior. A large percentage of new members first heard about the three angels’ messages through intentional evangelistic ministry efforts.
REFUGEE MINISTRIESAs various crises increase across the globe, hurting and displaced people groups from all over the world are coming to communities across Iowa and Missouri to build new lives. This is a time of unparalleled opportunity to reach out and serve those God has placed at our doorstep.
Through the Refugee Tuition Assistance Fund, refugee students who would not otherwise be able to attend one of our schools are able to receive a Christian education. Your gift supports this and other initiatives of Refugee Ministries.
Download the “Adventist Giving” app, visit imsda.org/give or fill out a tithe envelope.
