Resumés for Alabama’s executive director being accepted

Seven weeks — that’s the plan for the pool of candidates to be finalized for the transition and search team to consider as the next executive director of the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions.

Current executive director Rick Lance recently announced his plans to retire in January 2027, and the transition and search team went to work right away.

As the team, chaired by Buddy Champion of First Baptist Church Trussville, looks toward the March 31 deadline for submission of resumés and cover letters, they are spending these next weeks in prayer.

See full story below.
