On October 14 the Carroll-Benton Baptist Association held its 88th annual Associational Meeting at Eastview Baptist Church in Huntingdon. The wonderful folks at Eastview
welcomed us warmly and were terrific hosts. I want to personally thank those who helped with the food, the church for opening up it’s doors, and for Pastor Hunter Jones bringing our annual message. It was a pleasure for my wife, Sarahn, and I to see so many familiar faces and also others in attendance that we look forward to getting to know in the future. I want to thank the Executive Board and various committee members who faithfully serve our association for God’s glory. I believe we have a great association with great pastors who are helping lead our churches in ways that are truly impacting a lost and dying world all around us. In addition, I would like to thank Bro. Malcolm Norton, FBC Trezevant, who serves as the Moderator of our association and Bro. Greg Stanford, Natchez Trace BC, who serves as our Vice-Moderator. I am personally grateful for the labor of these two faithful men.
Another event sponsored by our Association is our first annual Women’s Christmas Banquet. The event will be taking place Dec. 1, 6:30pm, at FBC Huntingdon. This should be a great evening of fun, food, and fellowship for the ladies of our churches. We will give away prizes, have a photo booth set-up for you and your group to have your picture taken and brought back home with you when the evening is over, and then a delicious meal to follow (by the way, you may even see your pastor, dressed up in a cute flowery apron, serving your table- feel free to tip him a quarter if his service is “up-to-snuff”).
For the main meeting time, Kelli Harris, wife of Jacob Harris, pastor of FBC Huntingdon, will be leading in special music and then my wife will share her testimony. It’s a heart-gripping tale of her survival from the “Killing Fields” of Cambodia and journey to America where she first heard the name “Jesus” and gave her life to the Lord. The horror of what she and
millions of Cambodians endured will tug at your heart and in the midst of her testimony she will share the gospel. If you have any friends, family members, or neighbors who need to hear the gospel, this will be a great opportunity to bring them along where they can hear a clear gospel presentation. On the way back home I encourage you to continue the gospel conversation with your lost friend as you discuss Sarahn’s testimony and how God
providentially protected her so that she would one day encounter His own Son and embrace Him for salvation.
Again, thank you so much for all that you and your church do for our Association and please know that we are here to help you in any way possible. I count it as a privilege to serve as your Director of Missions and am extremely grateful for every church, pastor, and
member. May God bless you and your family during this holiday season!
For God’s Glory,
Blane DeLoach
