Outreach & Missionary Ministries Supported by Epiphany Anglican Fellowship
As a church Epiphany has from the very first service supported missionaries. We love to reach out to the World with the Good News of Jesus and are doing so in many places both domestically and in foreign lands. See information below of those we wholeheartedly support in prayer and with our financial resources and pray for these wonderful friends. If you feel inspired to give financially you can do so by making a check out to Epiphany and just write a note explaining how you would like for us to use it. As a Church family we are giving over $2,000.00 a month to support these many ministries. Thanks be to God for the faithfulness of His people.
Epiphany Anglican Fellowship is proud to help and support the following organizations.
Outreach and
Support of Missionaries at Epiphany
We are guided by the scriptures to love our neighbor as ourselves and to go and make disciples…We are also always asking the questions…How is Jesus served in this? And who among us will carry the vision with his/her passion? It will be led by the Spirit of God and by at least one individual who has a burning desire and commitment to see it happen.
We support various missionaries in the United States as well as around the world. We also support a number of outreach organizations in our local communities. Epiphany supports what these different people and groups are doing to be Jesus “with skin on,” to spread the message of the Gospel and to love and care for those in need or in trouble.
Our total monthly giving is about 23 or 24% of our total income.
