Annie Armstrong Easter Offering
“What a glorious thing it is to be a co-worker with God in winning the world for Christ.
- Annie Armstrong
Why is the Easter Offering named for Annie?
In 1895, an offering was first collected for the work of the Home Mission Board. In 1934, this offering was renamed the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering for Home Missions to honor the work of Annie Armstrong as a tireless advocate for giving, praying and going to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with those who did not know him.
Today, the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering goes to train, resource and send more than 2,400 missionary families across the United States and Canada.
Things you should know about Annie Armstrong.
- Annie Armstrong was born on July 11, 1850, in Baltimore, Maryland.
- From a young age, she went with her mother to the missionary meetings of Woman’s Mission to Woman. It was there she developed a heart for missions.
- Annie helped plant churches.
- Annie wrote hundreds of letters to raise awareness and promote giving to missions.
First Baptist Missions Council has set our
goal for this offering at $4,500.

From the Pastor:
FBC Dayton Family,
Well, here it is again! The biggest day on the calendar! The event on this day separates us from every “religion” on the earth from every era in history.
The Bible explains the events of Easter as the Gospel, or Good News as a literal translation.
Jesus said, “Now after John had been taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” (Mk 1)
Later, the Apostle Paul says, “…that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures…” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
This month we celebrate the Person of Salvation, Jesus! He was the only One qualified to be our Savior, Sacrifice, and Lord. We celebrate the event of Salvation, Jesus dying on the Old Rugged Cross, and we celebrate the Proof of our Salvation, the Resurrection of Jesus from the Dead!
Because of these events answer the age-old question, “How do you know that Jesus lives?
He lives, He lives, salvation to impart! You ask me how I know He lives? He lives within my heart.
Pastor Bob
