This week, N.C. Baptists are invited to pray daily for the North Carolina Missions Offering. From Aug. 30 through Sept. 6, we're lifting up the people, churches and ministries fueled by the NCMO, joining together in prayer for what God is accomplishing across our state and beyond.
Every September, churches give sacrificially through the North Carolina Missions Offering (NCMO) to fuel Baptists on Mission, SendNC church planting and associational ministry work. This year’s theme – «Living Sent,» from John 20:21 – captures our calling: just as the Father sent Jesus into the world, we are sent to carry His hope to those around us.
Your prayers and generosity matter. Together, they equip believers to address both physical and spiritual hunger in our communities and around the world.
Below are suggested daily prayer points for individuals and churches. These prayer points are also available at ncmissionsoffering.org/prayer. For more information and NCMO resources, visit ncmissionsoffering.org.
This year’s goal is $2.8 million. Give through your church or online at ncmissionsoffering.org/give.
