The Bible describes tithe as 10% of income. People “returned tithe” to God at their place of worship. These tithes would provide a living for the priests that served there. When a person returned tithe, it signified that God was Lord of all they had. (Hebrews 7:2, Genesis 28:22)
In the 1870’s, the Seventh-day Adventist Church adopted the biblical tithing principle as the primary mechanism for supporting our worldwide mission. This consistent plan of sharing resources is one key component that has enabled our church and its message to grow and remain firm in many parts of the world.
All tithe is sent by the local church to the Oregon Conference where it is distributed throughout the conference and the world.
Tithe is to be used to support the evangelistic outreach and nurturing ministries of the Church.
The majority of Oregon tithe supports ministry within the Oregon Conference.
When tithe is returned, the resources are shared among different church organizations according to a specific formula. This supports our worldwide mission. Here’s how tithe is distributed and used.

GC – The General Conference facilitates the mission of the Adventist Church around the world.
NAD – The North American Division (NAD) helps coordinate policy, curriculum, evangelism and employment practices across the United States and Canada. It is also instrumental in training the next generation of pastors.
NPUC – The North Pacific Union Conference serves the five states of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Alaska. It especially focuses on services that can be shared across the entire region, and supports Walla Walla University.
SMALL CONFERENCES – Smaller conferences often don’t have the financial resources to provide the needed ministry support in their territory. Through this allocation, Oregon directly supports ministry in Alaska, Montana, and Idaho.
PASTOR SALARIES – Employment costs are the single largest expense in the Oregon Conference. As of 2019, 124 pastors are employed in our conference.
OLD PENSION PLAN – In 2000, the NAD transitioned employees from a defined benefit (pension) retirement plan to a defined-contribution retirement plan (403 (b)). This budget item continues to fund the retirement of church employees who were working before that change.
CHURCH MINISTRIES – This supports the ministry departments of the Oregon Conference such as: Children’s Ministries, Youth Ministries, Evangelism, Ministerial, and Relational. These departments exist to directly support and resource the ministry of the local church.
CAMP MEETING – Gladstone Camp Meeting is an Oregon tradition. This allocation ensures that Camp Meeting continues.
EDUCATION – Oregon Adventist Education operates thirty-two K-12 schools. Tithe specifically supports the spiritual mission of our schools.
SUPPORT – Administration, Communication, Human Resources, Treasury, Trust Services, and Risk Management departments provide vital services and support to our churches and schools.
Offerings are acts of worship, beyond tithe, that we choose to give. Offerings are given as a free-will heart-felt response to the blessings of God. (Deuteronomy 16:17)
Many church ministries depend on faithful offerings.
> In most cases, an additional 4-7% offering would fully support the local church budget.
> Oregon Conference Youth Support provides resources for senior academies, Big Lake Youth Camp, and young adult ministries.
> World Budget supports disaster and famine relief, higher education, media ministries, and other mission outreach.
Your local church board decides how to use your offering in the ministry of your church through a budgeting process. Most churches use local church offerings for expenses such as: utilities, Sabbath School supplies, church school subsidies, student aid, church ministries, community services, evangelism, and local projects. Talk to your local church leaders to learn more about your congregation’s approach.
Oregon Conference Youth Support provides needed funding for three ministry areas.
Senior Academies in Oregon. This offering supports the operating budgets of our conference senior academies to help make them a bit more affordable to families.
Big Lake Youth Camp. Each year over 3,000 campers and 100 staff receive the blessings of the BLYC experience. In addition, Big Lake is proud to provide respite for weary Pacific Crest Trail hikers through the PCT Welcome Center.
Young Adult Ministry. Our church is committed to Growing Together through intentional mentorship of our next generations and thoughtful culture shift in our congregations.The YA department facilitates ministry and leadership development among young adults throughout our conference.
Special Guest: Sharon Stratmoen – Sharon is a 30-year KidMin Veteran who is passionate about finding great volunteers to impact kids for Jesus. She is on the staff at Rockpoint Church in Lake Elmo, MN. She works with Group Publishing as a Director and Developer of Events including VBS Curriculum.

Gladstone Camp Meeting 2020 is going virtual! The COVID-19 pandemic has raised all kinds of questions about when large groups will be able to meet, or even whether people will be ready for that. In spite of the uncertainty, the spiritual food and camaraderie, the tradition of camp meeting is still important.
So while we won’t be meeting in person at Gladstone, we’re already planning an interactive online experience that will encourage and connect us. What does Virtual mean? Programming will be accessible from your desktop, your tablet, or your cell phone. If groups are able to gather by then, churches can even host viewing parties! It all is still happening in July, with programming for all ages, including José Rojas as our featured speaker!
We hope you'll plan to join us for a new way of doing camp meeting. Watch our website, Facebook and publications for more details as we get closer to Gladstone Virtual Camp Meeting 2020.

He calls us, knowing how flawed we are, to love and reach children, first our own and then to come alongside other children and families and encourage them to do the same. Whether you are a parent, grandparent, a Sabbath School leader, an Adventurer leader, a VBS leader or a pastor this Children’s Ministry Expo will inspire you to reach this generation of children.

A four-year course designed to include all aspects of Pathfinder club management, programming, operations, and encourage teens to explore and develop their talents in leadership, planning and social skills. Visit the TLT website
The program gives the TLT an opportunity to experience Pathfinder leadership under adult supervision. There are six major areas the program concentrates on for training. These include: Administrative, Finance/Clerical, Camping/ Activities, Outreach, Counseling and AY Classwork Levels/Honors. Within each of these operations are several service areas that must be completed. Some clubs, due to size or location, will not require completion of all items under each section.
The Teen Leadership Training (TLT) program is designed to address adolescent developmental needs and promote leadership skills, enabling and empowering teens to become full partners in the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church with Pathfinder adult leadership in a “shared service experience” of the Pathfinder ministry in the North American Division.
“Loving the Lord Jesus Christ, I promise to take an active part in the work of the Teen Leadership Training program, doing what I can to help others and to finish the work of the gospel in all the world.”
