                <p class="text" align="justify">Advent Recovery Ministry has partnered with SupportThisMinistry.com,
                who will be providing us with an incredible new opportunity. They have developed
                a state-of-the-art fundraising website for Christian ministries (don't worry, we're
                not asking for donations). This website includes three very simple ways to generate
                some extra revenue for our ministry:</p>
                <blockquote dir="ltr" style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
                  <p class="text" align="justify">1) Christian Bookstore- With an unparalleled selection
                  of Christian books, Bibles, music, DVDs, gifts, children's products, and church
                  resources, you can find just about any Christian products you desire (or need).
                  Not only that, but you will also receive a 15% discount on most products, plus 10%
                  of all sales will be donated directly back to us!</p>
                  <p class="text" align="justify">2) Online Mall- SupportThisMinistry.com has developed
                  partnerships with hundreds of online stores, including nationally recognized names
                  like iTunes, macy's, PETsMART, Staples, and Wal-Mart. These stores will donate a
                  percent of each purchase to us as well. Just shop at the websites as you would normally,
                  just use the new link on our website to enter those sites so we get credit for your
                  purchases.</p>
                  <p class="text" align="justify">3) Featured Business Supporter Directory- This is
                  an area on our Ministry's fundraising homepage, which is devoted to listing businesses
                  that support us. The cost for listing a business starts at $20 per month. This is
                  a very important part of the website because if we get five or more directory listings,
                  SupportThisMinistry.com will allow our Ministry to buy the resources we use here,
                  at their cost! In addition, we get a percentage of the fees. This will help us save
                  money, while generating more at the same time! As you can see, this could be very
                  beneficial to our Ministry, and to make it successful we need your support.</p>
                </blockquote>
                <p class="text" align="justify">We have decided that the funds generated from the
                website will be used for financial aid to those who come to us without funds. The
                only thing you need to do is buy the same products you have been buying, just buy
                them using our site. You'll be paying the same prices; we just get a percentage
                of the profits that would otherwise be going into the pockets of big companies.
                When you need to buy anything, from the latest Casting Crowns CD to new soccer balls,
                please click on the shopping bag link below or you can go directly to the fundraising
                site at <a href="http://www.SupportThisMinistry.com/AdventRecovery">http://www.SupportThisMinistry.com/AdventRecovery</a>.<br>

<p class="text" align="justify">MinistryDeals.com was started by a former youth pastor and an ordained pastor from Riverview, Florida.  Like most youth pastors, every summer he faced the uphill climb of raising funds for missions trips and camps.  The idea of MinistryDeals.com came from the need for creative ways to raise funds.  Fundraising for ministry is always a movement of people.  This idea is no different.  However, MinistryDeals.com offers you a variety of ways to help raise funds for your ministry.  The simplest way is that you purchase products you normally buy, and the ministry receives a percentage of the total sales price.  You might not think this is all that exciting until you see the deals that we find everyday.  Often, well-known stores offer internet specials where you can save 50% or even receive something FREE after a rebate.  Your ministry benefits from your purchases and you find great deals on products you want. You can invite others to shop for you by following the MinistryDeals.com link on this page.</p>

<p class="text" align="justify">Another way to raise funds quickly is to find stores that offer sign up bonuses.  These stores are looking for new customers who desire their product.  Some sites offer sign up bonuses up to $50 for the first time you do any type of business with them (including receiving a free promotional offer).  These stores are willing to give back a portion of their sales in order to support your organization.  Please continue to shop at these establishments in order to thank them for this generous offer.</p>
