Join us in the month April for the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering
The Annie Armstrong Easter Offering (AAEO) is the primary way we support mission efforts in North America. One hundred percent of gifts given to AAEO are used to support Southern Baptist missionaries serving across the United States and Canada.
To give to this offering:
You may send a check in the mail – please designate “AAEO” in the memo portion of a check made payable to Grand Avenue Baptist Church.
You may give electronically at gabcames.org/giving choosing the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering Fund.
The offering goal at GABC is $1,250.00.
Over the course of the month we’ll be posting prayer requests from the 2020 Prayer Guide for the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering titled “It’s All About the Gospel”.
The following is the North American missionary spotlight and prayer requests and video for Day 5.
Day 5
Rob & Annabeth Wilton, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Reaching the City Together
After spending a decade in ministry in New Orleans, God called Rob and Annabeth to a new work. From their first visit, the Wiltons knew they were called to the historic city of Pittsburgh.
“There’s more than 2 million people, and the gospel hasn’t reached most of them. In lots of cities our size, Southern Baptists have started 20, 30, 40 churches in the last few years. But here, it’s hard. I can count the number of churches we’ve started on one hand,” explains Rob.
As the Send City Missionary, Rob came to Pittsburgh-not just to plant a church-but to reach the city by inspiring planters to work together.
“I’m planting a church in southwest Pittsburgh. Our new church has united with existing plants to recruit, train and send new planters. As one team, we’re already seeing how God is making us stronger together,” says Rob.
Pray
For more church planting missionaries who feel called to Pittsburgh.
For unity among the church planting leaders.
