WAKE FOREST, N.C. — In the first of four regional meetings sponsored by the Conservative Carolina Baptists Oct. 20, the proposed state convention budget and the committee on nominations process were key topics of discussion.
The meeting — which was held to help conservatives prepare for the annual meeting of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina (BSCNC) — was held at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest.
The BSCNC meeting will take place Nov. 14–16 in Winston-Salem.
Greg Mathis, a former convention president, also introduced Stan Welch, pastor of Blackwelder Park Baptist Church, Kannapolis, and Ricky Speas, pastor of Old Town Baptist Church, Winston-Salem, as the conservative candidates for president and first vice president, respectively.
Barry Nealy, director of missions for the Three Forks Baptist Association, is the candidate for second vice president.
