Southern Baptist History

Great Women Of Our Faith

Lottie Moon

Lottie Moon was a Baptist missionary to China in the 1800's. She gave her life for the Chinese people she was ministering to giving up her own food to the less fortunate. Annie Armstrong was a friend and collected money to help support Lottie Moon and others mission efforts. That is where the Lottie Moon Christmas offering for foreign missions came from that we participate in even to this day.

Annie Armstrong

Around Easter Southern Baptists collect a special offering for North American Missions. This is the Annie Armstrong offering. Annie Walker Armstrong (1850-1938) was a Southern Baptist believer who was very active in the Women's Missionary Union (WMU) of the Southern Baptist Church and helped to organize that organization as an auxiliary of the Southern Baptist Convention. She was instrumental in organizing donations for the first Lottie Moon Christmas offering for Foreign Missions. She also promoted organizations for encouraging African American Baptist Women. Annie Armstrong is another example of how women of the Southern Baptist Church have been the backbone of our denomination, as they are to this day, as they labor to share the Gospel at home and around the world.

For more info about Annie and the Annie Armstrong Offering go to :

Youth's In Service

Hire a youth! Are you tired and worn out from the hustle and bustle( what's a bustle?) of the work week? Do you just need a lazy Saturday with nothing to do but tell young people what to do and actually have them do it? Then hire a youth! They'll get'er done! Baby sitting, yard work, tree trimming, leaf harvesting, cotton picking, car/dish/dog washing teens! You name it they'll do it provided it's legal and mostly safe. All money raised helps send them to Word of Life Youth Camp and other life and faith growing events. If they collect enough they will bring them back too. See Richard Miller
