Military Bible Sticks
HOPE FOR OUR HEROES!
Just $25 provides a Military BibleStick (the Audio Drama New Testament and selected Psalms) for one of the Troops who protect our nation and preserve our freedoms.
“This has been the most useful thing I’ve ever had. Every day I listen — and it has brought me closer to God,” says a Navy pilot.
Thanks for giving a life-changing gift to the Troops!
We are participating in filling shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. Our goal this year is to fill 300 shoeboxes. We are in the last leg gift collection and will have the final packing party at the beginning of November.
Operation Christmas Child is gift-filled shoeboxes that go to difficult places around the world. From densely populated inner cities to deserts and jungles, local churches are using these gifts to share the Gospel – even where the name of Jesus has never been heard. Working with these ministry partners, Samaritan’s Purse aims to follow the Apostle Paul’s example and preach Christ where He is not yet known (Romans 15:20-21). Together, despite formidable challenges, the Lord is opening doors for us to deliver Good News and great joy to children in need around the world!

Lottie Moon
Lottie Moon – the namesake of Southern Baptists’ international missions offering – has become a legend. But in her time, Lottie was anything but an untouchable hero. In fact, she was like today's missionaries. She labored tirelessly so her people group could know Jesus.
Annie Armstrong (1850-1938)
Annie was born in Baltimore at a time when there was little opportunity for women. Yet, her devotion to Christ led her to a life of service and leadership. She organized women to pray, to give and to meet the needs around them. She challenged pastors and churches to action and rallied vital support for missionaries. Ultimately, Annie was recognized as a national Southern Baptist trailblazer for her visionary leadership that still inspires millions today.
