Our International Mission Board is the single most missional sending agency in the world.  We fund more than 4,000 full time missionaries and that number is growing annually.  Each year, more than 100 million dollars is given to the Lottie Moon International Mission Offering.  This offering is taken up by 45,000 Southern Baptist Churches in North America.  There is an annual budget of the IMB but the Lottie Moon Offering is given by each church over and above their annual gifts to the Cooperative Program.  We’re proud to say that 100% of the Lottie Moon Mission Offering for Foreign Missionaries goes directly to our missionaries and their mission programs.  Not one dime is kept in a church, Association, or State office.  We not only are the largest mission sending agency but we have more international churches, baptisms, and missional events than any other mission agency in the world.
