LOTTIE
MOON CHRISTMAS OFFERING
Lottie
Moon was appointed a missionary to China July 7, 1873. Her influence led to the
establishment of the Woman’s Missionary Union and inspired other mission
pioneers to join her on the field. Your giving enables missionaries to be sent
to make disciples and multiply churches among unreached peoples and places for
the glory of God. There are envelopes at the back of the sanctuary and at the
Welcome Center if you would like to contribute to the Lottie Moon Christmas
offering during the month of December.
Please write “Lottie Moon Offering” on the memo line of your check.
