Mission Opportunities

Albertsons Community Partner Card.
Albertsons offers the opportunity for nonprofit groups to participate in a program where each purchase of food, prescriptions, photo development or video rentals made at any Albertsons Store generates a 2% rebate back to the group for their own use. Our church uses these funds to help individual mission projects

ABC Offering

America for Christ Offering is usually taken in March each year.
Offerings are divided equally to support the ministries of the following agencies: Board of National Ministries, Board of Educational Ministries and our local region.

One Great Hour of Sharing is a relief offering received by many Protestant denominations. American Baptist generally take it in June. Funds received from this offering are available for emergency assistance, wherever there is a special need anywhere in the US or around the world.

World Mission Offering is taken in October. It is used entirely for the ministry of the American Baptist Board of International Ministries, supporting mission around the world. You may direct some or all of your giving to a particular missionary or mission field.

Retired Ministers & Missionaries Offering ( RMMO), sometimes called the Thank You Offering, is traditionally received in December of each year. About half of each year's offering is used throughout the following year to assist retired ministers and missionaries with special needs. The other half is then distributed the following November (in anticipation of Christmas) to all retirees, based on the number of their years of service within the American Baptist family.
