Cooperative
Program
Southern Baptist churches voluntarily
send a percentage or a specified amount of their regular
offerings to the state convention. The state convention
keeps approximately two-thirds of those funds for state
missions/ministries and the balance is sent to the Southern
Baptist Executive Committee in Nashville. The Executive
Committee distributes those funds to Southern Baptist agencies.
The International Mission Board (IMB) currently receives
half of the funds sent to the Executive Committee. Cooperative
Program funds represents 35 percent of the IMB's annual
budget.
