For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

Girls In Action

And in that day shall ye say, Praise the Lord, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.
Isaiah 12:4

Girls in Action, or GA has been a tradition in Southern Baptist churches since 1913.

The GA organization is for girls in grades 1 - 6.  It's a wonderful way to open up the world to young girls.  GA members are actively involved in learning about missions, praying for and giving to missions, actually doing missions themselves, and having fun along the way.

GA's and their leaders work together to plan and carry out ministry projects in their community.  Through hands-on experiences in meeting the needs of others, girls learn that what they do personally is just as important as the missions work their money and prayers support.

Parents, too, play an important role in GA by encouraging their daughters in their GA activities and serving as volunteers when GA leaders need extra help.

Each bi-monthly meeting has a missions focus, but GA's have other opportunities to lean about missions as well.  Here at Locust Grove Missionary Baptist Church, our activities include:

  • Making tray favors for Meals on Wheels

  • Making favors for our church's senior citizen meals

  • Volunteering to ring the bell for the Salvation Army's Christmas collection

  • Taking gifts we have made to nursing homes

  • Christmas caroling to homebound

  • Most anything that we feel called to help with

GA is an opportunity for girls to begin to develop a mission's lifestyle as they discover their place in God's plan.  They learn to see the world through God's eyes and recognize that He loves all people everywhere, no matter where they live.

GA Lifestyle Verse
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
Micah 6:8
