ATTN NTS ALUMNI: JOIN THE NTS CLUB 300
Just $300–or only $25/month
CLUB 300 is the work of the NTS Alumni Association, whose goal is to raise alumni giving at NTS equal to that of other seminaries across the U. S. Though NTS slightly exceeds the national annual average gift amount (of alumni to their seminary)*, we are behind in the percentage of alumni who give annually. The national average is 11% of alumni contributing to their seminary; however, only 2% of NTS alumni currently contribute each year.
We believe we can exceed the 11% standard established by our colleagues in other seminaries. To that end, we are asking each of our alumni to contribute $300–just $25/month–to support the mission of NTS. Your involvement is crucial at this time of financial transition within the denomination, and at the Seminary.
As a founding member of CLUB 300 you will receive the following benefits:
- Participate in two webinars on the Church in the 21st Century with a specific focus on preaching and on creating Communities of Service. The webinars will be facilitated by the NTS President and NTS faculty.
The first webinar was held on March 28, 2013 talking about global mission partnerships.
