Mission Support
(Stewardship)
The gifts of benevolence given annually to the Synod by
its congregations make a significant difference in thousands of lives,
not just those living in Florida and the Bahamas, but in the lives of
people around the world. The Florida-Bahamas Synod's budget is $3.4 million
dollars. 49 percent of these gifts have remained
in the Synod working to fund an array of ministries in these areas:
outreach; evangelism and service; nurturing, education, and fellowship;
and administration and organization. 51 percent of the gifts are the
Synod's benevolence gift to ELCA churchwide organization, and these gifts fund
ministries around the world.
