Money received from the Home Mission appeal is used in three ways by the Baptist family:
Regional Associations are funded through Home Mission. Regional Ministers and the support that is offered to churches are all paid for by Home Mission.
The Specialist Teams at Baptist House, Didcot are funded through Home Mission giving. Therefore whenever you call to ask a question or when you get DBS checks done, the advice you receive is enabled directly as a result of Home Mission.
Grants to local churches are available for any BU church that would struggle to pay its Minister and a grant of a maximum of 50% of stipend can be paid to churches.
The EBA has recently produced a video for use in churches to help explain and promote Home Mission (I would then like a link to our video on YouTube)
