Alabama Baptists approved a five-year partnership with Alaska Baptists.
The partnership got a jumpstart with Jamie Baldwin, recently retired from Alabama Baptist work in Sunday School and discipleship, currently onsite assisting with a church relaunch effort in Alaska.
Baldwin, with help from several Alabama Baptist missions teams, is working with local pastor Cody Schwegel for the grand opening of Liberty Church on July 4 in Craig, Alaska, a fishing and logging town on Prince of Wales Island.
What happens when the pastor brings his homework to church? What if that homework assignment involves evangelism?
“Your obedience to go isn’t where it stops,” says Adela Huezo. “It’s where it begins!”
This morning (Sept. 27), students across the country gathered a little earlier than usual at their schools for the 33rd annual See You at the Pole student-led prayer event.
“In the last three years, the shift has been staggering: 435,000 lost in 2020; 410,000 in 2021; and then 484,000 in 2022. In total, the [Southern Baptist Convention] has lost more than 1.3 million people in just three years.”
