A Devotion to The Great Commission

Missions Giving

We are commanded in scripture to Go and Tell in Matthew 28 and Acts 1. Sligo’s Great Commission Budget designates almost one-fifth of what is given to the church to mission organizations and mission trips.

Our church is committed to supporting the North American Mission Board and the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention through special seasonal offerings. We designate 12% of our general budget to support these mission organizations as well. Hundreds of missionaries serving around the world are carrying out the Great Commission with the support of the Cooperative Program. You can click on the links below to learn more about these amazing organizations through which God is blessing many people in U. S. neighborhoods, and in Nations on every continent.

WMU – (Women’s Missionary Union)

Our WMU is comprised of ladies of the church who have a heart for missions. We meet together at 9:00 a.m. on the third Sunday of each month to plan and/or work on mission projects. These include local projects, as well as national and international ones. We also spend time praying for missionaries and discussing ways to promote mission awareness in our church. Our goal is to provide ample opportunities for our congregation to become involved in missions.
