Louisiana Baptists have shown the heart they have for the lost through both financial and time gifts. Now is the time to do more; to give above and beyond touching more hearts for Christ than ever.

Georgia Barnette
State Missions Offering

"And who knows but that you have come to a royal position for such a time as this?"
Esther 4:14

Our tender, yet vibrant Louisiana, more than ever needs us to continue giving, working, and serving, "as unto the Lord."

Of the approximately 4.5 million people the Lord has placed in Louisiana for these times, statistics show that 50% are either lost or unchurched (according to the North American Mission Board). It is our responsibility as believers and Baptists to spread the message of God's love to Louisiana for these times. The mission field is right outside our back door.

Louisiana has faced one of the greatest natural disasters in all American history; and she has faced it with determination, persistence, and compassion for those hurting. The Lord has placed us here in Louisiana for "such a time as this."

Below are the GBO allocations grouped into five categories. This year will give an overview of the many ministries made possible by Louisiana Baptists giving to the Georgia Barnette State Missions Offering.

  • Mission Church Building/Equipment & Special Needs.
  • Mission Budget Supplements.
  • Special Mission Projects.
  • Hannah Reynolds Christian Education.
  • Missions Education, Promotion, and Leadership Training.

... For these times, let's tend the harvest.
... For these times, let's reach out and heal hurting hearts.
... For these times, let's stand together as Louisiana Baptists and reach our Louisiana for Christ.
