658 days ago by Bob YoderThank you for helping to surpass our original $100,000 goal! We are grateful for your generosity and support.
We are about $6,000 away of reaching our STRETCH goal of $110,000 that will unlock an additional $10,000 from a generous donor!
Every gift helps! Can you share our campaign with someone who hasn't donated yet today?
Thank you for supporting everything we do to make theological education accessible for students across the church.
661 days ago by Bob YoderWe just need a couple more gifts to reach our original $100,000 goal AND we need your help to reach our STRETCH goal of $110,000.
⭐If we reach the $110,000 challenge goal, it will unlock an additional $10,000 from a generous donor! Can you help us exceed our STRETCH goal?

661 days ago by Ben Parker SutterDear AMBS Supporter,
Thank you for the ways you have already supported our Season of Giving campaign through your financial gifts and spreading the word about AMBS. We appreciate you as together we are serving the church by educating leaders from across the globe for God's reconciling purposes.
Tomorrow is a BIG day...
...since it is "Giving Tuesday." We hope to:
1. Surpass our stretch goal of $110,000, AND
2. Surpass the total # of donors who contributed to last year's campaign - 153!
** We are just over halfway toward our stretch goal AND need 90 donors to surpass last year's donor total.
How can you help? Share!
** Share, share, share the campaign link with your network and invite them to support our ministry.
If you feel ambitious, create your own brief "personal plea video" sharing how AMBS has positively impacted your life and ministry, and/or why you support AMBS. (Log in to your Advocate account to get started.)
Thank you again...
...for all that you do for AMBS. We really couldn't do all that is done here without you.
Peace of Christ,
Bob Yoder
Director of Development
First, thank you for your support!
We appreciate you as you help make AMBS theological education accessible to students in Canada, the United States, and around the world. Below are some of our new students this school year.
Second, you can STILL support this campaign!
1. Spread the word by sharing the campaign link via social media, email, text, etc.
2. Create a "personal plea video" describing how AMBS has impacted your life, what AMBS means to you, etc. Log in to your Advocate account to get started. Keep it under 60 seconds. Scan the "Advocates" tab for a couple of videos already posted.
Finally, we are closing in on our goal(s)!
We are about half way toward our original $100,000 goal with the match by a generous donor, BUT reaching a STRETCH goal of $110,000 will unlock another $10,000 from another generous donor generating $120,000 toward our Season of Giving campaign.
Wouldn't it be amazing to see how far beyond $120,000 we might go?!?!
665 days ago by Bob YoderWe’re so thankful!
Our Teaching Faculty members are a huge reason why AMBS has been a vibrant Anabaptist learning community for more than 60 years.
We gave Malinda, Jackie, Jamie and Rachel the chance to express their thanks in this video.
Show our Teaching Faculty members your appreciation
