Annie Armstrong Easter Offering

The church participates in the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. The offering was started in 1895 by Woman's Missionary Union® (WMU) to benefit the work of the Home Mission Board (now North American Mission Board). In 1934, it was named in honor of Annie Armstrong, a bold missions advocate and WMU's first national executive leader. Today, more than $2 billion has been donated by Southern Baptist churches and individuals to support thousands of missionaries in church planting and compassion ministries. Because of this sacrificial giving, millions of lives have been and continue to be transformed by the power of the gospel. The offering is used to fund the following:

81% - Church Planting - financial funding and benefits for planting missionaries, training, recruitment, ministry assistance for equipment and outreach, missionary housing, missionary care.

13% - Evangelism and Compassion Ministries - evangelism resource materials and events, financial funding and benefits for missionaries involved in compassion ministry.

4% - Sending and Leadership - mobilization events, leadership resources and events, funding for short-term student missionaries.

2% - Missions Education - resources and training focused on mission field education for recruitment and mobilization of church planting missionaries.
