National Baptist Congress 2009

We are excited about hosting the National Baptist Congress of Christian Education in Detroit, June 22-26, 2009! We welcome Dr. William J. Shaw, Dr. R.B. Holmes, and Dr. George Waddles along with the national constituency. It is such a pleasure to have more than 40,000 baptists and friends sharing in the 104th annual session of our Congress. More than 500 classes and workshops will be held during the week and many services of worship as well.

On Monday evening at 6:30 P.M. we will hold the National Musical in Cobo Arena featuring the 500 voice Michigan Baptist Fellowship Choir. Our special musical guest will be recording artist, Donald Lawrence. You don't want to miss this powerful experience of the move of God. Tickets are $10.00 and may be purchased at Third New Hope. The Labor Relations Luncheon will be held on Tuesday, June 22, 12:30 P.M. at the Hotel St. Regis and our national president, Dr. William J. Shaw will deliver the message of the hour.

Our National Dean, Dr. George Waddles will be preaching at Third New Hope at 8:00 A.M. on Sunday, June 21st. National Congress President, Dr. R.B. Holmes will preach the 10:00 A.M. worship service on the same day. We are inviting all of our friends and family to join us for worship as we prepare ourselves for a week of learning and growing with National Baptists. This is a wonderful time for us to celebrate the heritage and history of the Baptist Churches throughout the nation. We are a strong people, loving God and each other!

Sunday's 8:00am service with Dr. Waddles started the week off on a good note. People are still trying to get CDs of the service.

Great Foresight Pastor!
