![The 15%]()
For many of us who have gone to Summit for a while, we know our church to be a pretty special place, and over the years, we’ve stood out for a variety of events and ministries. Did you know we were the first church in our area to host seasonal service events like niceSERVE or a recovery ministry like reGROUP?
If you’ve ever seen Base Camp Live, you know a high-energy production like our team puts on that’s also fun for the whole family is almost unheard of. Our Teach Team has even become a unique feature in recent years, leveraging various voices and backgrounds. Summit’s variety of worship styles might even be a highlight brought up with friends and family. Perhaps the most unique thing about Summit, though, is something that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough. So, what is it?
Well, it’s the 15 percent. It’s the 15 percent of all the money that comes in our doors that goes directly back out toward meeting needs outside the walls of our church!

If you’ve attended a service at Summit Orlando in the last decade, Barbara Cooper has likely been a part of your story whether you know it or not. As a member of our Worship Tech Team, Barbara has been running slides in our tech booth in the back of the sanctuary once or twice a month, consistently since 2012! She also has been coming in on Wednesday mornings for almost as long to load visuals and proofread lyric and scripture slides ahead of Sunday.

![Backpacks and Promises]()
If you’ve been around Summit for more than a year, you’ve likely seen our Backpack Drive promoted as we near the end of summer. Over the years, we’ve promoted the drive with fun videos and even heard firsthand testimony of how the drive has benefited lives. Most of us associate the mountains of backpacks that pile in the lobby with local schools and our ongoing commitment to supporting vulnerable children in Central Florida. What many people don’t know, though, is that some of these backpacks go to AFCO (Africans Family and Community Outreach)!

![Measured In Stories]()
From volunteering to giving to praying, partners at Summit have made an impact on our church, our community, and our world. When it comes to being the hands and feet of Jesus, we all know that sometimes the impact of our time and resources is best measured, not in numbers or statistics, but in stories. So we invite you to take just a few minutes to join us in celebrating some of the ways God has been working over the last several months through our church family.
