Tallapoosa Baptist Association on mission

Barry Cosper, director of missions for Tallapoosa Baptist Association, led a team of 12 to Australia July 4–18.

Team members assisted in leading the first Vacation Bible School in the history of Hawkesbury Valley Baptist Church in Sydney. They also held evangelism-training courses in other local churches.

“Although a great deal of what he (Cosper) spoke about was not new to us here in Australia, it was the extraordinary enthusiasm and methodology he outlined that made his presentation to us all now think of how we do the Lord’s work here,” said Tony Harvey, who attended a session at Glossodia Community Anglican Church in Sydney.

Cosper said the team was focused on walking alongside the churches and helping them in any way possible.

“I wanted to make sure that we connected with them and that their week was positive and productive and God just blessed it,” he said.
