The 204th annual meeting of the Georgia Baptist Convention opened Monday evening at Second Baptist Church in Warner Robins, Houston County, Georgia. Convention President Steve Browning called the meeting to order with 753 messengers registered.
According to the Christian Index, the newspaper of the Georgia Baptist Mission Board, the meeting’s emphasis is “WIDE OPEN.” Mission Board Executive Director Thomas Hammond is attending, and sermons are being delivered by Tommy Fountain of 1025 Church in Monroe and Chip Dean of First Baptist Church in Powder Springs.
The convention cited roughly seven million Georgia residents who do not yet profess faith in Christ as the backdrop for its statewide missions discussions.
The Georgia Baptist Convention is one of the state’s oldest Baptist fellowships; its annual meeting gathers church messengers from across Georgia to consider budgets, officers and ministry reports.
