The Cooperative Program, Stewardship & State Missions Development Office provides information and resources for local churches to assist them in the fulfillment of the Great Commission. Gifts given by individual churches through the Cooperative Program are combined into a unified budget to support the mission and ministry efforts of the Georgia Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention. Through the Cooperative Program our churches enter into a partnership that sends the gospel around the world. Within days after your church sends in its Cooperative Program contributions through the state convention, the funds are on the mission field helping to tell the story of Christ to many who have never heard it before. It can be said without hesitation that the sun never sets on the Cooperative Program.
