Prayer Focus

Pray for various missions we celebrate in our churches and those who serve in these programs. It’s time we begin our yearly focus on mission work in North America, Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. As we celebrate this offering, let’s focus on those who serve as missionaries in North America . The WMU meeting today will focus on the Annie Armstrong Offering, those who currently serve as missionaries in North America, and the great need for salvation in North America.

The 2025 theme is “Step Into the Story.”

The scripture verse is 3 John 1:7-8, “For they have gone out for the sake of the name… Therefore, we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.”

The national goal is $78 million.
