Annual Meeting

“We get to bear fruit, Texas Baptists family. We bear this fruit because we are connected to that vine that is Jesus Christ.”

Three new convention officers were elected during the Monday, Nov. 16 Business Session of the 135th Annual Meeting of the Baptist General Convention of Texas.

“It was an intentional focus, not just to change the name, but to have an intentional strategy.

“We have to think, engage our minds, pray, seek the Lord and at the end of the day based upon what we know about God and his values, move forward”

“Keep being a bold witness. Keep telling people about the goodness of Christ,”

Beginning Sept. 8, 2020, Texas Baptists Annual Meeting workshops will be offered in a weekly online format Tuesdays at 2 p.m.

More than 2,000 participants in-person and online witnessed the launch of Faith Fosters Texas at the 2019 Texas Baptists Annual Meeting Nov. 17-19.

Phillip Nation, director of Advancement and Global Impact Churches at the Baptist World Alliance (BWA), started his Tuesday morning workshop at 2019 Texas Baptists Annual Meeting by posing a question. “What would it look like to create a culture for global disciple-making?” he asked.

Victor Rodriguez encouraged pastors to “let the seeds fly” in his sermon during the closing worship session on Tuesday of the 2019 Texas Baptists Annual Meeting.

“The biggest threat to Christianity is not atheism or strongholds or science.”
