What is the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering®?

Together, we take Jesus’ gospel to every corner of the world.

It’s an offering for international missions. Churches — big and small — pool their resources to send and sustain missionaries who find and engage the lost.

This legacy goes all the way back to the 1880s when Lottie Moon, a missionary to China, urged churches to work together to send more missionaries. That call still moves us today.

A legacy of presence

Lottie Moon changed the way Southern Baptists viewed missions by making it personal.

In 1873, she sailed to China as a missionary. She devoted her life to serving the people while sharing the gospel. Through letters home, she shared stories that helped churches understand the needs of missionaries and people who had never heard the name of Jesus. She challenged believers to work together to send and sustain more missionaries. Her influence inspired the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering® for International Missions. Her life left a legacy of faith, generosity, and global missions.
