Lottie Moon
is our annual Christmas offering for world missions. So far this December we have collected $330.
Lottie Moon was sent as a Southern Baptist missionary to China from 1873 to 1912. She saw firsthand the world’s greatest problem
— LOSTNESS. Meeting so many people who had never heard the gospel compelled her to write letters to American churches describing the need for a greater missionary presence. She pleaded for increased prayer and financial support to send and sustain more missionaries. This challenge became known as the Loƫtie Moon Christmas Offering®.
The church Christmas party and white elephant gift exchange will be 12/17/23 after the morning service. There is plenty of food and extra gifts have been provided. So please stay and celebrate with us even if you have not contributed! There will be no evening service this Sunday.
