2016 Annual Homecoming Program Guide | #sbcvhome 2
Welcome messengers and guests to the2016 SBC of VIRGINIA ANNUAL HOMECOMING!
Twenty years ago messengers met with great anticipation when the SBC of Virginia was founded as a state Baptist convention standing on the Scriptures, committed to the Great Commission, and in
strong partnership with Southern Baptists. Now, two decades later, we give thanks for the Lord’s blessings and commit ourselves anew to His calling and commands.
We pray that this will be much more than just another meeting, but instead, a time for SBC of Virginia churches to worship together as we celebrate how we have worked together to plant, strengthen, and mobilize so that the Gospel of Christ can be proclaimed.
Not Alone! is our theme. The SBC of Virginia is a partnership of churches - a Great Commission coalition of churches on a mission to reach the world for Christ. We are committed to proclaiming Christ across Virginia, Metro DC, America, and around the world.
On behalf of our convention president and church host pastor, Dr. Bryan Smith, our officers, executive board, and ministry team - welcome to the beautiful Roanoke Valley and to your SBC of Virginia Annual Homecoming. As you experience this homecoming these next couple of days, our prayer is that you will be encouraged by the ministry that is taking place thanks to your church partnership in praying, sending, giving, and going!
Your brother in Christ,
