Finance update

Thank you for your faithful support of our church. Tithe (10% of income) is passed along to our conference and is used to pay our ministers and support our worldwide church. Our offerings are in addition to our tithe.
 
Contributing to our church budget supports our activities at Apison along with paying for essential expenses such as utilities and supplies. Prayerfully consider making regular contributions to our local church budget as well as the student financial aid account. Both are at a deficit for this quarter. We know that God will bless us this year!
