What we do

  • Provide a conduit of generosity with ministry partners who want to invest in growing the kingdom of God through local churches who are reaching their communities with the good news of Jesus Christ.

  • Biblical advice from years of ministry experience when you need it. Schedule hourly support across a range of topics—from planning to possibilities. This focused consultation will help clarify your goals, vision, and identify opportunities for growth.

  • Assist South Carolina students who intend to serve evangelical orthodox Methodist churches in South Carolina with tuition and expenses to attend Asbury Theological Seminary. Students will need to complete an essay that explains their Call to Ministry, Academic/Career goals and how this scholarship will help them achieve their calling and goals.
