Women's Missionary Union

The WMU of First Baptist Church is an organization of women who teach missions, do missions and encourage giving to missions through the Cooperative Program.

Currently 8% of undesignated tithes and offerings of First Baptist Church Mexico are given to missions through the cooperative program.

There are three special offerings each year for missions. They are:

Lottie Moon, for foreign missions. Every cent given goes directly to the foreign mission field through the International Mission Board, IMB.

Annie Armstrong offering for home missions, given directly to home missions through the North American Mission Board, NAMB.

Reubin L. South, state mission offering. This special offering goes to further the missions in the State of Missouri.

The organizations of the WMU, currently active, are:

Girls in Action meets on Wednesday.

 

Women on Mission groups are:

Betty Spann Mission Circle meets 3rd Tuesday of each month at 2 P.M.

Mary Ann Fite Mission Prayer Group meets the 4th Thursday of each month at 1:30 P.M.

Homebound Ministry Group is an ongoing ministry for our homebound members. It does not meet on a regular basis, but as needed.

Bible Study Group for adults meets the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month at 10 A.M. in the church library.

Love in Action is a group that makes bibs for newborns at Audrain Medical Center. This group meets on the last Monday of the month from 9 A.M. to 3 P.M.

First Place is a Christian weight loss program that meets at 6 P.M. every Wednesday just off the fellowship hall.

The mission groups welcome visitors and new members. It is our prayer that by prayer, service, giving, and our mission involvement, people will be brought to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that violence, hunger and suffering will be relieved, and that we will be good stewards of Matthew 28:19-20 and Matthew 25:34-40.
