RMMO 2020
HOPE FOR TODAY ... HOPE FOR TOMORROW
The Retired Ministers and Missionaries Offering (RMMO) originated in the mid-1930s, when American Baptist congregations received a Communion Fellowship Offering on the first Sunday of each month to support retired ministers, missionaries, their widowed spouses and elderly clergy within their churches. In 1977, American Baptist Churches USA launched RMMO to continue this appreciation of God’s service.
This year, to honor this tradition and acknowledge the current circumstances, we chose Hope for Today, Hope for Tomorrow as our theme. This theme encompasses the true strength and dedication of ministers, missionaries and their widowed spouses who have devoted 15 years or more to ABCUSA.
To help your congregation organize RMMO, a mix of printed and online marketing materials are provided. MMBB understands the challenges churches are facing and wanted to offer practical options for a successful campaign.
We hope you will support our ministry and encourage participation within your congregation, thank you.
RMMO guide and promotional materials are available now. Hard copies of the offering envelopes and instructional promo guide will arrive in early November. If you have any questions, or need additional materials, email rmmo@mmbb.org.
