Who's Your Spotlight On?

E-BULLETIN FOR MARCH 11, 2023

OUR MISSION
Extend the ministry of Christ to our community with hope and wholeness.

Our Vision - “Build 7”
We will be a Church on God’s mission in Apopka, with Apopka, and for Apopka, seven days-a-week.

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."

- Matthew 5:14-16

Giving - We believe God asks His followers to give a tithe (10% of our income) to fund the world-wide Gospel ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (see Numbers 18:21-24; Malachi 3:10;). We are also invited to give offerings as the Holy Spirit impresses us to give to support the local mission of the Apopka Seventh-day Adventist Church and other special projects in the state of Florida and beyond (see 2 Corinthians 9:6-7). Today's Featured Offering is for our Local Church Budget. Please remember our Building Fund, which will go toward our mortgage payments as part of our Local Church Budget once we receive our "Certificate of Occupancy" for our expanded facility. You can give a physical offering using a tithe envelope and deposit it in the box in the lobby or give it online at adventistgiving.org. See our generosity update below...
