Together

by Mark Milioni

Baptist Bible College. Local churches. Mission Office. BBFI missionaries. The Tribune. We all strive to reach the world for Christ, each with our own methods, resources, and leaders. We often forget we are not alone.

We are better together.

Our college exists to train leaders to serve in our churches and on the mission field. Our churches send students who become the next generation of ministry leaders. Our Mission Office serves to support those who have been sent. Our missionaries are supported prayerfully and financially by our churches. We depend on each other. We are better together.

Plan to join us in Springfield May 8-11 as we work “Together” to bring you Fellowship Week 2017. Due to boiler issues in the W. E. Dowell Fieldhouse, we are working with Pastor Don Baier and Seminole Baptist Temple to host this great event. The meeting begins on Monday, May 8, at 6:30 p.m. at Seminole.

It is my hope Fellowship Week helps us rediscover the power of working “Together” to accomplish one goal — sharing the Gospel with the world. The week will offer great music, challenging speakers, opportunities to reconnect with old friends and fellow alumni, and a chance to come “Together” to be challenged to do great things for God.

Our speakers for the week include Mac Brunson, Ted Cunningham, Herb Gilbert, Alex Himaya, Shelley Switzer, and Barry White. Special events include alumni breakfasts, a women’s breakout session, and a coaching opportunity. For complete details and to register, visit www.gobbc.edu.

Our May Offering emphasis is the current Fieldhouse HVAC need. Please consider how you can be part of this very important need.

We are better together.
