Are we there yet? Not yet. And this year, getting there is even more challenging. We Southern Baptists, impacted by the U.S. economy, have been unable to give as much as in previous years to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. Our gifts the last two years were way off the expected need to make a significant dent in the number of lost people in the world. That means fewer workers are able to take their places overseas to do their part in helping reach the remaining lost. So this year’s offering is exceptionally important. When our church gives, we are closer to “getting there.”
