Email UsNovember 30, 2024 is the NPUC annual offering in support of Arctic Mission Adventure. AMA has workers living and working in eight communities at an annual cost of $30,000 per village. These dedicated workers provide ministries tailored to each community, including day camps, Bible studies, food pantries, leadership development, and outreach programs. We are grateful for the significant growth of AMA, but there is still much work to be done as more than 200 villages lack AMA presence! Your offering on November 30th will go toward keeping workers in villages and ensuring that Adventist parsonages and churches remain open.
