The Baptist Testimony – Volume 55 Number 1 January/February 2009

A Special Note Regarding the Baptist Testimony

The MARBC Council of 15 recently approved a change in the publication schedule of the Baptist Testimony. Beginning with this issue, the Baptist Testimony will now be a bi-monthly publication. This means that the amount of issues published per year will be reduced from 11 to 6. To compensate for the reduced amount of issues, each issue of the Baptist Testimony will now be six pages instead of four. The publication schedule for the six issues will be: January-February / March-April / May-June / July-August / September-October / November-December.

Church Partnering Relationships – “CPR” Initiatives for 2009

We rejoice in the many CPR Initiatives that took place between sister churches in Michigan last year. The MARBC office is in the process of assigning CPR partnerships for churches interested in participating in 2009. If you would like to assist a sister church or would like a church to assist your ministry, please contact the MARBC as soon as possible. Many churches and ministries are in the final stages of planning potential summer ministry and mission trips. Be sure to make CPR a major consideration in your planning. Contact the MARBC by Email, or by phone (616.364.5688). Don’t delay!
