People have always been missing from

God’s kingdom. But this year it’s even worse.

Can you help us findmissing

It’s worse because Southern Baptists, impacted by the U.S. economy, were unable to give as much as in previous years to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering®. And their gifts were way

off the expected need to make a significant dent in the number of lost people in the world.

That means fewer Southern Baptists are able to take their places overseas to do their part in helping reach God’s missing people.

So this year’s offering is exceptionally important.

Your significant gifts help…• Journeymen like Casey do community outreach by helping

struggling farmers in East Asia.• Two-year missionaries like Darby Pushic return to the classroom

in Spain and mentor semester interns.• IMB leaders continue work among priority peoples and start

new work areas — and not have to choose between the two. • Literally millions hear Jesus’ name for the first time.

When you give, you reduce the number of missing persons. Please give generously to international missions.
