Missions & Disaster Relief

Alabama State Missionary Baptist Convention
Florida / Texas Disaster Relief Response

Dr. Vernon Swift is calling on all ASMBC churches to assist in reaching the immediate challenge of $10,000 made by our National Baptist Convention president, Dr. Jerry Young. However we want to exceed that challenge because the needs are far greater. We are asking all churches to take a special offering, make individual contributions and pledge to the overall 2017-2018 goal of $100,000. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE respond as soon as possible by filling out and returning the pledge forms below.

Another way to help:

If anyone wants to help buy water to provide relief for the Miami, Florida area, please consider buying purchasing a pallet of water through Missions and Disaster Relief

1 pallet of water will require a donation of $200.00
1/2 pallet if water will require a donation of $100.00

Send your donation marked for “Water Relief” to Montgomery Antioch Baptist Association, 1023 South Court St., Montgomery AL 36104

Deadline for his effort is September 20, 2017.

Again on behalf of Dr Vernon Swift, President ASMBC, the call is to all churches. Let’s show the nations once again that we will lead the way and take the challenge and glorify of Lord Jesus Christ by our loving support.
