Giving to Missions

FBCA is honored to be part of a global mission movement taking the Gospel of Jesus
Christ to the nations of the world. Through the International Mission Board and North American Mission Board, FBCA actively partners with faithful servants of Jesus Christ, sharing the love of God in the global cities as well as some of the most difficult locations throughout the planet. 100% of every dollar given goes to support missionaries. 

The four special offerings that FBCA partners with throughout the year include: 
Annie Armstrong Easter Offering: Trains and sends more than 5,000 missionaries involved in church planting and compassion ministries across the United States and Canada, often in places where the gospel is not welcome. Through the NAMB's Send Network, this offering helps Southern Baptists plant new churches. The Send Relief effort equips churches in addressing poverty, refugees, foster care, adoption, and human trafficking. 
Alma Hunt Offering for Virginia Missions: Alma was a native Virginian known worldwide for her missions service and unswerving dedication to the cause of Christ. This offering provides funding for all Woman's Missionary Union of Virginia (WMUV) missions and ministries and makes possible other special ministries, outreach projects, and various initiatives.  
Dorothy Allport Network Mission Offering: For 77 years, Dorothy was an active member of FBCA serving in a variety of leadership positions. In 2009, the NorthStar Network Council established an annual offering in her honor. Each year, the offering goes to support various ministries. In 2019, the offering will benefit Feed My Starving Children, a Christian nonprofit committed to feeding God's starving children hungry in body and spirit. 
Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions: Because of who He is and because you give, the IMB helps churches send missionaries to the billions who have yet to hear of Jesus' great love for them. Your gifts go to the work of reaching every nation, enabling missionaries around the globe to share the truth and hope found only in Jesus Christ.

Cooperative Program
The Cooperative Program (CP) of the Southern Baptist Convention is one of the most dynamic and effective funding models propelling global missions in modern history. Through the CP, every participating church – no matter how large their annual budget or active membership – can be equally invested in a global movement to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the nations of the world. Launched in 1925, the effectiveness of CP has continued to be dependent upon individuals, churches, state conventions, and SBC entities working toward a common goal of sharing the gospel with every person on the planet.

The CP began as a five-year pledge campaign that, for the first time, included everything—the missions and ministries of all the state conventions as well as that of the Southern Baptist Convention. Thus, a God-given partnership of missions support was conceived.

FBCA is strongly committed to the Cooperative Program which supports missionaries both in North America and throughout the world. Currently, 12 percent of our church budget is designated for the Cooperative Program. By participating with other Southern Baptist Churches we extend our reach to the ends of the earth.  To learn more about how the CP works click here.
