'Tis the Season to Give
“I’ve come to realize that when we learn how to be good stewards of each other, we are able to be good stewards of the land.”
— Karen Alford, CBF field personnel serving in Togo, West Africa
How do I give?
Each December we are encouraged to give to global missions. Those who contribute to First Baptist Church’s budget receive envelopes for this purpose, or gifts may be mailed to P.O. Box 908, Griffin, GA 30224. You may also contribute through FBC’s online giving portal. For four weeks we will highlight work done by CBF and IMB. We covet your prayers and hope you will support one or both of these endeavors.
Carson and Laura Foushee
Carson and Laura Foushee serve in Kanazawa, Japan with its international community. Since 2013, they have served in partnership with the Japan Baptist Convention in local congregations in Kanazawa as well as in Tokyo. They were called back to serve in Kanazawa in 2022 for long-term work after studying Japanese and serving in a local church in Tokyo. The Foushees seek to be Christlike neighbors as they offer their gifts in word and deed to share Jesus’ love with their local church and the wider community.
