SUMMARY:Orphans and Widows Sunday
DESCRIPTION:Orphan and Widow Sunday reminds us to align our hearts with the call to practice true religion (James 1:27)\, caring for orphans and widows. Here are three ways a believer can be mindful of them throughout the year. \nBe Near to the Brokenhearted\nScripture tells us clearly that God is close to the brokenhearted (Ps. 34:18). So\, those of us who choose to imitate Christ know that being Christlike means that we should be close to the brokenhearted as well\, and this includes caring for orphans and widows in our communities. The local church has the profound opportunity to be near to the brokenhearted over a long period of time. Whereas it is hard for one individual to carry the weight of being near all the time\, there is strength and stability when a group of people dedicate themselves to those who are suffering\, whether to widows in our communities or children placed in foster care. \nMake Service a Way of Life\nWhen we look at Scripture\, it is undeniable that serving those in need is a critical part of the believer’s life. And so\, we don’t merely give lip service to orphans and widows this Sunday\, we find ways to serve them throughout the year and practice the biblical call to a lifestyle of service. \nCover Them in Prayer\nIn addition\, prayer should always undergird our care for the widow and orphan. Prayer is never an empty sentiment in the believer’s life. Instead\, it’s a powerful tool to advance God’s Kingdom in our world\, and so we pray big and audacious prayers over the orphaned and widowed. We pray boldly\, “Thy Kingdom come\,” with all its restoration and redemption\, “on this earth as it is in heaven.” \nA Prayer for Orphan and Widow Sunday\nGod\, we thank You that You are a Father to the fatherless and near to the brokenhearted. Open our eyes to see the needs of orphans and widows around us\, and teach us to love them not only with words\, but through faithful action and prayer. Strengthen your Church to draw near with compassion and to reflect the hope of Christ in our communities and around the world\, so that orphans and widows may experience your steadfast love through the care of Your people. In Jesus’ name\, Amen. \nDownload resources for your church.

SUMMARY:Week of Prayer for International Missions and Lottie Moon Christmas Offering
DESCRIPTION:Week of Prayer for International Missions\nSouthern Baptists observe a Week of Prayer for International Missions each year before the annual Lottie Moon offering emphasis. Will you join your heart with others to pray for missionaries around the world who are faithfully sharing the gospel? \nLottie Moon Christmas Offering®\nEvery year\, Southern Baptist churches collect an offering to send and support missionaries to be steadfastly present among those who have never heard the gospel. 100% of the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering® enables gospel transformation among the unreached. \nIn 1873\, Lottie Moon was appointed as a missionary to China. She spent nearly 40 years sharing the gospel with love\, courage\, and unwavering faith. \nHer letters home inspired churches to pray and give\, leading to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions. Today\, this offering supports missionaries and helps take the life-transforming message of Jesus to the nations. \nLet’s honor her legacy by praying and giving so others can hear the hope of the gospel. \nDownload resources for your church.  \nPhoto courtesy of IMB.
