A WORD FROM THE HOME OFFICE
We all have something in common. We are all partners in spreading God’s Word. As Phillipians 1:5 tells us: “For you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now.” May God lead you to consider partnering with the Acts 1:8 Foundation through planned giving. You can impact lives for future generations to come.
