What Is The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering?
Growing up in Virginia, Lottie Moon and her siblings chose
to rebel against Christianity.
At 18, Lottie followed Christ and was baptized. When she was 33, she sailed to China as a Southern Baptist missionary.
She saw first hand the world’s greatest problem – LOSTNESS.
Meeting so many people who had never heard the gospel compelled her to write letters to American churches describing the need for a greater missionary presence.
In letters to Southern Baptists in America, she pleaded for increasing prayer and giving. Her letters raised more support for missionaries to be sent to China.
Every year, Southern Baptists collect the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering® where 100% of the money given sends and support missionaries.
