What is Advent? The Advent season includes the four Sundays leading up to Christmas and begins this year on Sunday, December 3. It’s a time of expectancy and preparation for the celebration of Jesus’ birth.

Giving Generously
Many folks are looking for opportunities to give this Christmas season. If that is you, we encourage you to give to one of these areas this year as you give generously.
Lottie Moon Christmas Offering
The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering (LMCO) goes directly to missionaries serving around the world through the International Mission Board (IMB). These funds help offset ministry needs that regular funding do not cover.
Year End Giving
Many of the areas Broadmoor ministers to on a daily basis come from the ministry budget. Missions support, ministry resources, and operational expenses are all areas that depend on the ministry budget dollars. Did you know almost 25% of the church’s ministry budget comes in the months of November and December? As we end 2023 and look to 2024, we want to finish strong to give and resource even more in the coming year. Your year end giving makes that possible.
Giving Generously of Our Time
Giving generously does not always have to be monetary. You can also give of your time and resources. Below is a opportunity to do so.
Central Mississippi Correctional Facility Gift Bags
Live generously this Christmas season by gifting the female inmates at Central Mississippi Correctional Facilities (CMCF) with a small gift bag of hygiene products. Broadmoor will collect items in bins around campus from November 21 through December 10. A packing party will take place on December 10.
