Pastor, someone asked recently, why should I give my money to BaughmanChurch, as opposed to the United Way, the Salvation Army, or the AmericanCancer Society? Good question! Heres the answer.

Last Sunday (Jan 26 th) Baughman UMC had 200 men, women, and children worshipping the Lord Je-sus. During the sermon Win shared scriptures from the Bible reassuring you that God can be trusted to

provide. The Sunday before (Jan 19 th) Win challenged you to take off spiritually. The Sunday be-fore that (Jan 12 th) Win asked what difference Jesus makes in your life. Now, who else in your lifeasks you such questions, and encourages/challenges you to grow spiritually? Who else is teaching youthe Bible?

Last Wednesday Baughman UMC had over 120 people sharing warm fellowship on the coldest night ofthe year. No drinking. No drugs. No sex. No violence. Just good, wholesome fellowship with peoplewho care. Where else but the local church do you find such healthy fellowship?

In December a homeless couple came to our Church office desperate for help. Theyve worshipped atBaughman UMC ever since. They feel reconnected with God, and they have hope. Who else but thelocal Church does such spiritual work?

Last Sunday there were 37 children in Sunday School. Sunday night there were 16 students at YouthGroup. Tuesday night there were 50+ kids at Club Impact. Where else but the local church are thesekids going to learn about Jesus?

So far weve had 18 new visitors come through our doors to worship with us for the first time in 2014.We dont know their stories yet, but I know for a fact that one of them is without God, and theyve

come to Baughman to find Him. The United Way and the American Cancer Society doesnt shareGod with others. We do!

Yesterday, Baughman UMC hosted the funeral of June Kearns. We celebrated her life, and shared thegospel of Jesus Christ with all those who attended. Afterwards, we hosted a reception for her family.Who else offers this kind of care?

The local church is the front line of the spiritual battle in our world. This is where people are won toJesus. This is where people learn to forgive, grow in grace, let go of their sins, strengthen their fami-lies, and grow in the wisdom of God. No other institution does this but the local church.

Is Baughman worthy of your investment? You bet it is! We are growing the Kingdom of God, beating back the devil, and rescuing families in distress. We are sharing Jesus, teaching the Bible, and offering

hope to those who are empty. We are busy fulfilling the very mission we have been directed to fulfill TO MAKE DISCIPLES OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE WORLD!

Do you know of any other organization who does this kind of work? If so, by all means, give to themas well.

Yes, we are worthy of the best you can give.

Why Give Money to Baughman?
