Michigan Advance Partners

Over the history of Adventist Education we have seen a financial model that has struggled in recent times. Gone are the days when tuition income was the main contributor to financial viability. As a matter of fact, we are seeing more and more families struggle to pay for tuition and this in turn puts more pressure on the Conference, schools, and churches to make up the difference.

Unfortunately, tuition continues to rise, and will continue to do so, to match the increasing cost it takes to run and manage our institutions. Let’s be honest, Adventist Education is expensive. Yet, the cost of not having Adventist Education in these last days is infinitely more expensive. “As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man.” (Matt 24:37)

Given what we are seeing around us it would be fair to say we are living in the last days of earth’s history. Our schools exist to help form characters in our students that will help them stand for Christ in a world without a moral compass.

Please consider the ministry of Adventist Education in your giving. Investing in a human life pays dividends this world cannot calculate. Part of your offering to Michigan Advance Partners is used to support Adventist Education in Michigan.
