Several years ago four associations in Southwest Georgia partnered to bring a quality training experience to that area. Bethel, Bowen, Grady and Tucker Baptist Associations share the opportunity to host the event. This year James Holloway and the Bethel Association did a yeomans job. Somewhere in the vicinity of 175 to 180 people attended.
Conferences were provided for all age groups. I was able to attend the pastors meeting led by Benny Pate, Specialist in Leadership Ministries of the Georgia Baptist Convention. In addition to the quality conference led by Dr. Pate, the pastors provided great discussion of relevant topics.
A highlight for me was to see Barry and Kay Thompson of Mt. Vernon Baptist Church in Atlanta. The three of us (along with my wife Phyllis) were college students together. It was a great reunion.
Tucker Association will host next years event at First Baptist Church in Pelham, GA.
