Stamp Ministry
In the past 1 1/2 years Calvary UMC Ambler collected over 5,000 stamps for the Alliance Stamp Ministry. This organization has been collecting used stamps since 1972. The stamps are sold to stamp dealers around the world which raised over 1 million dollars for the publication of Spanish Sunday school curriculum and missions in 19 different Spanish speaking countries in South America, Central America, Spain and the USA.
