The goal for the 2011 California Mission Offering is $350,000. Gifts to the CMO will support church starting, healthy church evangelism projects, disaster relief and mission action, associational projects and mission support.
The largest allocation in this year’s offering, $140,000, is for starting new churches in the Golden State which are effective in reaching California’s more than 37 million residents.
But, California Southern Baptists also are concerned about the health of 2,100 existing CSBC congregations. Because of this, $98,000 is allocated for healthy church evangelism projects.
CSBC churches will be involved in mission action and the offering has earmarked $40,000 for disaster relief efforts and direct mission projects such as the “Feeding Those Who Feed Us” for migrant missions.
Ministering through associational partnerships is one way local congregations benefit directly from the California Mission Offering. This year $49,000 has been earmarked for associational partnership efforts.
Mission support projects will receive 6.6 percent, or $23,000, of this year’s offering to help with the season of prayer and promotion for CMO.
