Dear Missions Leader
Cooperative mission involvement has always been at the forefront of Baptist congregations world-wide. Each local church connects with the work of Christ in every part of the globe regardless of size and resources by contributing to the missions endeavors of collegial groups the congregation chooses as partners.
Thank you and your church for choosing to allow Cooperative Baptist Fellowship to be a missions partner. We wish to assure you that every dollar contributed to Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Florida is very carefully received, processed and used to fund the mission work we have promised you to do. In these very, very difficult economic times we are very cognizant of its impact on individuals’ abilities to contribute. Therefore, we are making the materials for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Florida 2009 Missions Offering available to you here for download, in addition to sending to your church some. So, with much prayer and anticipation, we trust you will develop a strategy best suited for your church. You may choose a Spring, Summer or Fall emphasis; a one-time, one Sunday emphasis; or some other creative opportunity. Our goal is to give to you the resources to accomplish your goals of promoting mission support in your church.
As we have always done, we want to assist you in encouraging your fellow sojourners to touch the world around them with their gifts. Our Missions Offering emphasis speaks about “Opening Doors to a World in Need.” These five opportunities of ministry may only be fulfilled through the faithful giving of God’s people. Perhaps seeing, hearing or reading these short descriptions will inspire someone to give in a way they have not before and thus, grow in their personal commitment to Christ.
You will find here the poster in two sizes to choose: 11 x 17 and 8 ½ x 11 in English, and a 11 x 17 version in Spanish. (click on the required size to download) The 8 ½ x 11 version is perfect to include in PowerPoint and media presentations.
You will also find English and Spanish versions of the Bulletin inserts. You will need the Inside and Outside files to print front and back. These are all full-color and print nicely on a fairly good printer. Download and print as many as you wish.

Many churches are using multimedia in many different ways. We recommend that you download the poster image and include in your PowerPoint announcements, on your church website, etc.
Your church should have received some already printed of these items (except Spanish) and plenty of special envelopes to use. Please contact the office in Lakeland if we can assist you with any of this.
Thank you for your continued faithfulness to the cause of Christ in your community, our state, nation and world. Thank you for considering Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Florida a worthy partner in your connecting to the world around you, both near and far. |
