Eliza Broadus Mission Emphasis

Kentucky State Missions Emphasis

SEND HOPE: WHERE LOSTNESS IS GREATEST

Send Hope

Where brokenness leaves gaps, God fills them with grace.

Across Kentucky, there are real gaps—families in need, students searching for purpose, churches working to reach their neighbors, and people who have yet to hear the hope of the Gospel.


Through the Eliza Broadus Offering for State Missions, Kentucky Baptists come together to step into those gaps with prayer, generosity, and gospel hope. Inspired by Ephesians 4:15–16 and the beauty of kintsugi, this year’s theme, Fill the Gap, reminds us that God restores what is broken and uses every part of His body to build up the church.

September 13–20, 2026

Kentucky Baptists pray, give, and go together to fill the gap where lostness is greatest.
