Annual Missions Offering
Annual Missions Offering 2026
Bringing the life of Jesus to our families, neighbors, and the nations
Each year, God invites us to join Him in the work He’s doing across the world — a story far bigger than any one of us. When we give to missions, we’re not just funding programs — we’re fueling people meeting Jesus. We’re extending His life and love into homes, schools, neighborhoods, and the nations that are longing to know Him.
At Southall Church, our heartbeat is to bring the life of Jesus to our families, neighbors, and the nations. That’s not just a statement on a wall — it’s the call of God on our church. And this year, through our Annual Missions Offering, we’re taking another step toward living that out together.
Give now through December 31, 2026

Our partners
Serving our families and neighborhoods is a hands-on effort, and alongside our local partners in Franklin and throughout the state of Tennessee, we long to see a gospel impact that ripples well beyond the walls of the church.
We partner with international missionaries and organizations to further the kingdom of God around the world. These partnerships allow us to spread the gospel and make an impact in places like South Asia, the Dominican Republic, Israel, and Southeast Asia.

SPONSORSHIP DAY · JOSIAH’S HOUSEWhy we give
From the first pages of Scripture, God has always been a sending God, sending Abraham to a new land, Moses to lead His people, prophets to speak His truth, and ultimately, His own Son into the world. Every act of sending begins with love, and every act of love costs something.
“As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”
JOHN 20:21
“See that you excel in this grace of giving.”
2 CORINTHIANS 8:7
That means generosity isn’t just what we do; it’s who we are. We are a sent people, carrying the life of Jesus wherever He leads us. Paul reminded the Corinthians that generosity is a grace, not a duty but a divine privilege. Giving is grace in motion: it’s what happens when our gratitude meets God’s mission.
This offering is our way of saying yes again: yes to the call, yes to the mission, yes to being part of the story God is writing in our families, our neighbors, and the nations.
LOOKING TO 2027
What your giving fuels
Your generosity doesn’t just sustain ministry; it sends it forward. Every gift becomes a seed God multiplies into stories of redemption, discipleship, and hope. As we look toward 2027, we’re praying and preparing for new doors to open, locally, nationally, and internationally.
Your part in the story
Every great move of God begins with ordinary people who say yes.
You don’t have to move overseas or quit your job to live on mission. You can start by giving toward what God is doing right here and around the world through His church.
Whether your gift is large or small, it matters. It’s an act of worship. It’s faith in motion. And together, it allows us to keep saying yes to every opportunity God gives us to bring the life of Jesus to our families, neighbors, and the nations.
