A WORD FROM THE HOME OFFICE

The Lord is blessing Acts 1:8 Ministry with growth across this nation and beyond. More and more churches and individuals are moving God’s work forward through Christian kindness. As a result, we are looking for people to serve the Lord in this ministry at the home office or around the world. 1 Peter 4:10 tells us “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” If you are looking to serve in God’s kingdom through Acts 1:8 Ministry, please email Karen@acts18.org or call 920-494-2289.
