Here are five reasons to complete an ACP!

• Family – You are an important part of the Southern Baptist family! This small task benefits the entire SBC and its mission of reaching the world with the Gospel.
• History – Historical statistics about your congregation are maintained for you if/when needed.
• Resources – SBC agencies use ACP information to allocate funding and other resources to CSBC to benefit California churches.
• Representation – The SBC determines representation on national boards based on ACP information. Also, the number of messengers eligible from your church to attend state and national conventions is determined using ACP statistics.
• Communication – Information provided through the ACP survey enables your association and state convention to better communicate with and serve the needs of your congregation.

 Click the link for workshop details and to register:  Workshop on Biblical Exposition

Pastors,

The Workshop on Biblical Exposition is a three-day training event aimed to encourage and equip you in the skills needed to read, understand, and proclaim the Word of God. The Workshop includes times set aside for 1) Principles of Exposition (instructional sessions on how to better handle biblical texts), 2) Small Group Practice (when you will share and receive feedback on two passages you prepare in advance), and 3) Expositions (the opportunity to sit under the word). 

Each of these sessions is carefully designed to be interrelated for the greatest value in improving your work. In other words, this is a Workshop and not a conference. If you cannot be at all the sessions, then it really isn’t for you.

It is important to note: Partial participation is not permitted. Our pedagogical commitments in the small group sessions as well as the cumulative relationship between the small group and plenary sessions, full participation is required. Extenuating circumstances should be discussed with the Charles Simeon Trust and exceptions will be granted very rarely.

Congratulations to Dr. Jawane Hilton, Pastor of the Brister Baptist Church in Compton, CA on becoming the new President of the California African American Fellowship.

WHAT IS INSIDE THE TRAILER

GOAL
Evangelism Events are known for bringing neighborhoods together, creating relationships and providing gospel-centered opportunities for mutual aid when the need arises. Reaching an unbelieving community in a non-threading way, outside the four walls of a church, is an effective way to contact those who do not attend any church. This $300.00 resource accommodates the use of regular ministry services and events that would support our local churches within any irregular guidelines or restrictions regulated toward doing ministry.

The Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission exists to assist your churches by helping you understand the moral demands of the gospel, apply Christian principles to moral and social problems and questions of public policy, and to promote religious liberty in cooperation with churches and other Southern Baptist entities. Together, we can bring hope to the public square—for the sake of the gospel.

The sex trafficking industry is everywhere

Research shows that in America there are more sex trafficking points of sale than there are Starbucks. The sex traffic industry generates an average of $150 billion a year world-wide, making it one of the top three criminal industries.

The Miqlat Project knows that there is redemption for anyone who is ready and willing to receive it. With over a decade of experience in successfully rescuing the exploited, we have cultivated a proven method of offering hope to women.

Meribeny Humstoe is a speaker for churches interested in joining the fight against human and sex trafficking. She has dedicated 15 years of bringing awareness to our community, our churches and our schools. She would like to serve our churches in any way possible.

Please contact Meribeny at miqlatproject@gmail.com and visit the website for more information.
