NASHVILLE — A centralized organization with top leadership based in Nashville has been announced as the first major step in revitalization of Southern Baptists’ two national conference centers at Glorieta in New Mexico and Ridgecrest in North Carolina.
The two LifeWay conference centers will be operated as one organization with facilities at two locations, according to T. Michael Arrington, vice president of the corporate affairs division of LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention in Nashville. The positions of director of Glorieta and director of Ridgecrest will be eliminated and replaced by a Nashville-based director of conference centers.
Larry Haslam, director of Glorieta since 1973, and G.W. Lankford, director of Ridgecrest since 1992, will retire Sept. 30.
