Let’s reach our state together!
Every year Louisiana Baptists take up an offering dedicated to help fund missions and ministries around the state. The money received through the offering is used by God to transform the lives of people and churches in Louisiana.
Learn more about some of the specific ministries that benefit from this offering and how your gifts are allocated.
The offering is typically promoted and collected by the churches of Louisiana. But, if you are inclined to give an individual gift, you can do that here.
Through the Georgia Barnette State Missions Offering, we equip Louisiana Baptists to meet practical needs while sharing eternal hope.
Join us in praying for the Georgia Barnette Offering and the ministries it supports all through the year. Though the month of September, we will pray for 4 featured ministries.

The yearly Louisiana Missions Offering is named in honor of Miss Georgia Barnette, a missionary to New Orleans in the early 1900s. Keep reading to learn more about her story.
Louisiana is not merely where we live—it is our mission field. And though the journey may not always be easy, I can assure you from my own experience: there is no greater joy than seeing a soul come to Christ and no greater purpose than following His Great Commission.
Let us begin here. Let us begin now. Let us begin with Louisiana.
