“When people give to missions, things happen. New believers are getting baptized; new churches are started,” said J.D. Fasolino. Fasolino and his wife, Andreina, moved from Venezuela to plant Emmanuel Baptist Church East in Toronto, Ontario.

Gifts to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering support missionaries and church planters like the Fasolinos across North America.

This year’s theme is “It’s All About the Gospel,” based on 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, “For I passed on to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the scriptures” (CSB).

The national offering goal is $70 million. For more information, visit anniearmstrong.com.
