Invitation to celebrate

Invitation to celebrate

This year, the Baptist Convention of New England is celebrating 50 years of Southern Baptist work in New England and 25 years as a constituted state convention.

The celebration will culminate at our annual meeting with many special events and activities on Nov. 13–15 at the Courtyard by Marriott in Marlborough, Mass. During our 50 years of ministry, God has used many people to plant churches, strengthen churches and lead people to Christ.

We would like as many friends of New England as possible to join us for this historic celebration, and we would like to be prepared for their coming.

If anyone who now resides in your state who has formerly served in New England would like to join us for this celebration, they may e-mail us at bcne25@bcne.net to let us know of their intention. They can find further details at our Web site, www.bcne.net.

Even if they cannot come, we would be grateful to receive their updated addresses and e-mail information so that we can communicate with them about this special event. Thank you for allowing us to use this space to share the good news with our former New England ministry partners.
