LOTTIE MOON CHRISTMAS OFFERING
Lottie Moon was a Southern Baptist missionary to China in the late 19th century. There she saw firsthand the world's greatest problem: lostness. She wrote letters to American Southern Baptists, pleading for prayer and giving. Her letters raised support for more missionaries to be sent to China to reach the lost. Every year, First Baptist Church Shallowater collects donations to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. These funds support our own missionaries serving with the International Mission Board. Please consider giving through the Church Center App / Lottie Moon Offering or by dropping a check in the offering plate and designating 'Lottie Moon' in the memo. Donations will be accepted through all of December.
