  11. Apportionments For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them – Ephesians 2:8-10 Impact mission and ministry around the world Apportionments = ‘A Portion Meant for Others’ A generous United Methodist tradition Gain all you can – Save all you can – Give all you can John Wesley, Founder of the Methodist movement
