JESUS CHRIST – THE
SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY & FOREVER – Heb. 13:8
2019 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE – LAYMEN
Address to Pastors & Moderators:
Truly God is calling all leaders to
be all that He intended in His Churches.
As President of the OBGC Laymen
Auxiliary, the Laymen need and solicited the
support from Pastors in the following ways: 1. We encourage every Church in the OBGC to have a vital Men’s Ministry, rather it’s a couple of men or 200, depending on the size of your congregation. Remember that a Laymen is simply a Man who has accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior & is a member of the local church. Thus regardless of his position in the local congregation (Deacon, Trustee, Choir member, or parking guard), they are Laymen!! If you do not have such a ministry – let us know and
WE WILL ASSIST YOU IN DEVELOPMENT.
2.
We truly need the support of Pastors &
Moderators.
Yes, being a Pastor is a workload in
itself, yet to have a strong Men’s Movement
to assist you helps that workload.
We Need You and Your Support.
Contact your local District Laymen
President and lend not only verbal support, but
assist him in developing Men. Our 4 Year Goal remains the same – (1) Evangelizing to lost men everywhere, inviting them to have vital relationship with Christ. (2) Assisting Churches to have a strong Men Ministry.
(3)
Development of a Young David/Jr. Laymen
Program
in every church.
If we don’t train our young men, the
streets certainly will.
Thanks you Pastors, thank you Moderators,
and Men – continue to do ministry everywhere you
go and may God bless our efforts.
I will see you District Presidents doing
each of your Association Laymen Day as I have
for the last 4 years (1st Vice
President, Bro. Thornton will attend the
Northern in my absence as this year my wife and
I will be out of the country.) Keep checking the web site for more information coming shortly. Thanks
Sincerely,
John Cannon Matthew 6:33 Click Here for Details and 2019 Registration Form Click Here for Souvenir Book Advertisement Contract |
