Mission Service Project for September

Mary Hill Davis Offering for Texas Missions
The goal for FBC is $7,500. The Mary Hill Davis Offering for Texas Missions® Week of Prayer is September 14-21, 2025. This week, churches and individuals are encouraged to pray, promote, and support Texas Baptist ministries and missionaries serving around Texas and the world.

Mission Service Projects:

Each month WOM and the small groups give to service mission projects such as:
Pray for Missionaries Passage: Jonah 1:4-17, focus verse 9
And he said to them, “I am a Hebrew, and I fear the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.
Read Jonah 1:4-17

Jonah did not just run to the ship; he also slept in a hiding place. A fierce storm grew. The crew begged their false gods for rescue. Finally, the captain retrieved Jonah, who said to throw him overboard. The men unwillingly put him in the water, and the storm ceased.  The crew worshipped the one true God.

In God’s unending grace, instead of destroying the crew, He revealed Himself to them. And sinful Jonah became a picture of what would happen to the sinless Christ (Matt. 12:38-41). Like He did with Jonah, God can use even our missteps to announce His good news!

Still, may we learn from Jonah to notice the impact our sin has on others and desire to stop it. May God help us understand that reaching others with the gospel is about His truth and inescapable presence, not our ability.
         
Lord, help me and all believers like me overcome any timidity and put our effort into telling others about Your saving power.

Prayer Focus: South Asian Peoples: Despite her family’s opposition, Gajara, a teenager, became a believer after reading the Bible, someone gave her. She even shared the gospel with children in her neighborhood. She had been without church fellowship until God orchestrated a local church-planting pastor and his wife moving near her. Pray for Gajara’s discipleship.

Missions Through WMU and WOM

The mission of God is a thread woven throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. God makes it clear His desire is for all people to know Him and follow Him. The Bible helps us understand God’s mission and know how Christians are to be involved in His mission.
God issued the mandate for us to be involved in missions through the Great Commission. Our choice is how to be involved.  WMU and WOM offers many opportunities for giving and hands-on service missions projects.  

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering

Changes lives forever by empowering North American missionaries to bring the gospel to the lost. With over 269 million lost people, North America and its major cities are some of the most spiritually dark places in the world.

Mary Hill Davis Offering

September
Your giving enables Texas Baptists to minister across Texas sending missionaries and provide opportunities for people to hear the Gospel, find hope in Christ, and sustain WMU of Texas’ ministry efforts.  Your gifts bring hope to a battered woman and her family. Your giving provides medicine for a sick child at a free medical clinic. A child’s life is changed because your generosity enables them to go to summer camp.
