Thank you Lottie Moon!

Here the girls stand beside the tiny, famous, feisty Southern Baptist Missionary named Lottie Moon. (Yes, she was actually that size in real life!)
Lottie worked as a missionary to China in the 1800s. During her years of service to the Chinese people she sent many letters home urging the church to support foreign missions in a greater way. In 1918 an annual offering was named after Lottie. Every penny given to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering goes to support IMB missionaries. I think that would make Lottie proud! Today over 5,000 missionaries are serving on foreign soil to reach the world with the Gospel. This year our family is part of that number. How will you give this year?
