Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions
In 1873, Lottie Moon was appointed as a missionary to China. She spent nearly 40 years sharing the gospel with love, courage, and unwavering faith.
Her letters home inspired churches to pray and give, leading to the beginning of the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions in 1918. Today, this offering supports missionaries and helps take the life-transforming message of Jesus to the nations.
Let’s honor her legacy by praying and giving so others can hear the hope of the gospel.
