Call to Prayer
As you are aware the SBC annual meeting is being held next Tuesday and Wednesday, June 14-15, 2022 in Anaheim, California. This will be a difficult and yet very important meeting as messengers respond to the Sexual Abuse Task Force report from Guidepost Solutions and the subsequent recommendations related to it. I plan to attend as a messenger and would appreciate your prayer as I travel and participate. Please pray that we will have great wisdom, humble hearts, and a spirit of harmony as we deliberate and decide on future actions that will shape the future of the SBC. We will also be electing officers to lead us. Please pray that the Lord will guide us to call those who can lead us well into a challenging future as a denomination. I believe the days ahead will not be easy, but I also believe it is incumbent on all of us to work together to navigate the troubled waters we are going through with grace and truth. Pray that the Lord will be honored in our response to address the wrong that has been done, and also be pleased with our resolve to faithfully fulfill the mission He has given us to accomplish together. – Dr. Gary Mathes
