Holiday Missions Offering 2016

News, Missions

hmo-logoChristmas is a time for us to model the heart of God in giving to others. Each year, we celebrate what God has done as we give toward our Holiday Missions Offering.

You can bring your money at any time during the month of December, but each week, we will have a special offering in addition to our regular offering.

Our generosity toward these missionaries, ministries, and agencies is a wonderful opportunity for us to show our love and gratitude to Christ by giving so that His gospel may be declared around our world, beginning in Blacksburg!

Here is how we will be using what our church family gives:

  • 50% of it to the existing missions and ministries that we support:
    • International Students Inc.
    • Campus Ministries:
      • VT Baptist Collegiate Ministry
      • VT Cru
      • Individuals:
        • Trey Moore (VT Cru)
        • Rebecca Lansford (VT Cru)
    • Local agencies:
      • NRV Pregnancy Resource Center
      • Young Life
      • Montgomery County Foster agency
    • State denominations:
      • Baptist General Association of Virginia
      • Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia
  • 50% to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering (100% of that goes directly to overseas missionaries through the International Mission Board).

We want to encourage you to please sit down with your friends, family, and spouse and prayerfully make this year’s offering a matter of surrendered prayer. You can begin bringing the amount that you have purposed in your heart to give today. If you would prefer to give online, you can do so here. Just indicate the “Holiday Missions Offering” on the “Select a fund..” option.
