To read a quick recap of some of the latest news reports from The Baptist Paper, see below.
1. The deployment to Valdosta, Georgia, was the ladies’ first deployment together as a unit. The women — Janet Fryar, Tammy Chandler, Debbie Cooper, Linda Cherry, Cathy Smith, and Cathy Canitz — had all deployed previously with other Arkansas Baptist Disaster Relief teams.
2. Described by people across the nation as “the neatest project ever” and “amazing,” missions advocates are watching and waiting intently this week — and also relieved it is only a model (no one is going to live in the craft stick houseboat).
3. “Preventing embezzlement starts with the pastor. Yes, that’s a little extreme, but pastors are the leaders that bring change. They are the overseers, protecting the flock from spiritual and real harm,” writes Mark Snowden, director of missional leadership for the Cincinnati Area Baptist Association.
