Our Cooperative Program Dollars at work

Did you know that LHBC doesn't receive any funding except what comes from individual donations? As a church, we then join with other Southern Baptist churches in contributing to the Cooperative Program.

The Cooperative Program is the heart of Southern Baptist Missions and Ministries. Through the efforts of like-minded churches giving together, ministry around the country and world is multiplied! We are indeed stronger together than we would be individually.

In the chart below you see the 2015-2016 Cooperative Program Allocation Budget. This chart represents all anticipated gifts of cooperating Southern Baptist churches to the SBC's Cooperative Program.
