Mission Opportunities

Giving
As a part of the Southern Baptist Convention, First Baptist Church has many opportunities for people to support missions right here in North America and around the world. Our largest offering is the annual Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. All of the proceeds from this offering go to the International Mission Board of the SBC. The Annie Armstrong Easter Offering is taken every Easter and goes to support missions in North America.  The Dixie Jackson offering raises money for the State Board. Any time you give money to the church through your weekly tithes and offerings, a portion of that goes to support missions through the cooperative program of the SBC.  Monthly benevolence offerings help support the needs of people in the Bentonville community and various offerings go to smaller mission projects.
