St. Andrew Permanent Endowment

The St. Andrew Permanent Endowment provides our congregation with a perpetual source of income in support of the church’s ministries and missions, as well as providing our membership a vehicle through which to make legacy gifts to the church.

Your gifts. Forever Invested.

 

Vision

The vision of the Endowment is to provide for and to secure St. Andrew’s future and that of its ministries, both global and local. Our Permanent Endowment complements and supports the basic and future needs of the church and its ongoing initiatives.

The story of the Endowment

Long before "awesome" became slang for "very good," it was a word of profound reverence and inspired awe at God's works.

The story of St. Andrew is literally awesome. Since our inception over 35 years ago, God's kingdom has grown through St. Andrew's leadership, ministries, and facilities in ways we could only have dreamed in the early days. But the ministry of St. Andrew is only just beginning. We are a growing church. Central to God's vision for the future of this church is the St. Andrew Permanent Endowment.

Established in 2011, the Endowment allows members and friends of St. Andrew to leave faith legacies and secure the vitality of the church for future generations.

Gifts to the fund, which we call Forever Gifts, are invested, not spent. Earnings from these investments complement and support the basic and future needs of the church and its ongoing initiatives, according to established criteria. For example:

  • Establishment of new ministries, including planning new churches and new church ministries
  • Scholarships to develop future pastors and leaders from within the St. Andrew family
  • Major upgrades and emergency needs of permanent facilities on campus

As it grows, the Permanent Endowment Fund of St. Andrew will provide our congregation with a perpetual source of income in support of the church's ministries and missions.

 

We have received an inheritance in Christ. We were destined by the plan of God, who accomplishes everything according to his design.

- Ephesians 1:11
