The Communities of the Faith initiative is designed to honor AG churches who want to ensure that the legacy of Pentecostal faith is transferred to subsequent generations of ministers.
Communities of the Faith churches have established an endowed fund at AGTS in the amount of $25,000 or more to provide scholarships for seminary students. Two churches are founding members of this initiative: Christian Life Center in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., pastored by Max Yeary (Watch the five-minute video at www.agts.edu/more/yeary.); and First AG, Ocala, Fla., pastored by Dr. Drexel Brunson.
For more information on this or other opportunities for recognition, call the AGTS Development Office (417-268-1012).
