“The shepherds returned,
glorifying and praising God
for all they had seen and heard,
just as they had been told.”
~Luke 2:20, HCSB~

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions
Who’s Lottie?
Lottie Moon – the namesake of the international missions offering – has become something of a legend to us. But in her time Lottie was anything but an untouchable hero. In fact, she was like today’s missionaries. She was a hard-working, deep-loving Southern Baptist who labored tirelessly so her people group could know Jesus.
Why was the offering named for this early missionary?
Throughout her career, Lottie Moon wrote numerous letters home, urging Southern Baptists to greater missions involvement and support. One of those letters triggered Southern Baptists’ first Christmas offering for international missions – enough to send three new missionaries to China.
There’s many events scheduled in the next few weeks. Don’t let the business of the season take your focus from the reason we are celebrating.
