Want to help support Purpose Ministries? Running Purpose Ministries and its ministries comes with server expenses, outreach costs, media expenses, and other ministry expenses. If you’re able and would like to help financially, we’d really appreciate it. Support may also help make it possible for some staff positions to be paid in the future, but there is no guarantee of future payment. Staff positions are voluntary for now, and supporting financially is completely optional and will NOT affect your staff application.
