SBC IMF Missionaries offered "early retirement"

Cash-Strapped Missionaries Get a New Calling: Home

“The International Mission Board, an entity of the Southern Baptist Convention with 4,800 missionaries and 450 support staff, plans to cut 600 to 800 people from its workforce, a 15% reduction.

It is starting by offering voluntary early retirement to veteran missionaries. Since 2010, the organization has spent $210 million more than it has taken in, officials said. Last year, it had a $21 million shortfall.”
