Today is December 1st.
Do you know what that means? Time to start thinking about the Southern Baptist Lottie Moon Christmas offering! John and I, and the other 5,338ish IMB missionaries (Church Planters) DO NOT have to raise monthly support because of the generous offerings from the people in the Southern Baptist churches located across North America.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU
We cannot say thank you enough. For us, imparticular, look at what the IMB is covering for us through the LM offering:
Our house, a monthly salary, health insurance, our schooling, the kids schooling, taxi allowances, a car (in Peru), traveling allowances, passports, vaccinations, crating allowances, Visas, monthly training, and constant IMB staff support here in C.R. and in Lima.
We can share the Gospel (after we learn Spanish) FULL-TIME because of these gifts. The IMB is fully committed to taking the Gospel to where it is NOT! They desire that ALL PEOPLES WOULD KNOW HIM!
Our home church, First Baptist St. Cloud, has set their Lottie Moon offering goal to $12,000.00 this year. That's 12K not 12 million! If you attend my home church or even if you don't, you NOW have the opportunity to partner with us through the Lottie Moon offering. We encourage you to pray about how the Lord will have you give this year. Maybe you are not called to "go," but God can certainly use you to "give" so that we can "go."
We get e-mails asking how you can help support us monthly. Well, we only need support ONCE a year! The IMB Lottie Moon goal for this year is 165 Million Dollars. This supports over 5,000 missionaries ALL over the world and the HUGE support staff that is in Richmond. To give online, click on the following link:

If you can give 165 million that's awesome! If you can only give $16.50 that is equally awesome and appreciated.
John and I have NEVER mentioned money on our blog before, but December is the month where Lottie Moon is remembered. If you would like to read her story, please click here:

THIS IS LOTTIE MOON! One of the first Southern Baptist missionaries to China!
This is just a "small" group of IMB missionaries that are supported by the Lottie Moon Christmas offering. This is the current group of people that are studying Spanish to take the Gospel to Central and South America.

Hey, I saw Jim and Sherry Neal in the photo. We met them when we got to Lima last year. The boys think his "illusions" are great! They're neat folks that you'll enjoy having in Lima with you.

Thank you for the Lottie Moon information, Thomas and I are sharing Peru and Lottie Moon to a small church in our county tonight. We went to the IMB site and saw your blog. I was so excited to see your comments and will share from it.
Thank you for your giving hearts and commitment.
Love, Grannie Rains
