Iowa Baptists’ Generous Giving Continues

During his annual report, BCI Executive Director Tim Lubinus shared encouraging statistics about the strength of Iowa Cooperative Program giving. Last year, BCI Messengers approved the recommendation made by the Executive Board to increase Cooperative Program giving to 75%, which will continue in 2023. 

Lubinus highlighted several additional encouraging statistics about BCI Cooperative Program giving:

  • In the last 8 years, BCI Cooperative Program giving has increased 777%.
  • BCI Cooperative Program giving in 2022 was 2 times the entire BCI budget of 8 years ago.
  • BCI is the only state convention giving more to the IMB through the Cooperative Program than we use in our state.
  • 75% of funds given through BCI go to the Cooperative Program, representing 0% change from last year.
