I am in Asheboro tonight to attend the Baptist State Convention of NC Board of Directors' meeting.  I have had the honor of working with this group for the last three years.  One of the great things about it is that I get to see first hand how we as NC Baptists partner together for the cause of Christ.

I chair the Business Service group and as we were meeting we heard a report on the NC Hunger fund.  Did you know that FBCC received money from that fund to support our Food and Clothes ministry?  Also tonight, we heard that four teams have been engaged in on the ground work in Haiti assisting in disaster relief efforts.  Again, FBCC is a part of that because we are sending donations to the NC Baptist Men to help cover the cost of that project.

I could go on and on showing you how our church is partnering with others to spread the good news of Christ not only here but to the nations.  I hope that when you see the newscasters' reel of the yellow-hatted Baptist Men your heart fills with pride because you are part of that team.  I hope that as we minister to those in need in Creedmoor at the Mission building each Wednesday morning you remember that 4,000 churches are behind our ministry.
