Those not attending will receive your ACP report in the mail.
Please complete and return to the CBA office by October 31.
Let’s have all 50 churches report this year. We can do it!
The Block Party Ministry Trailer has a popcorn
machine, a cotton candy machine, a snow cone
machine, an inflatable bounce house with a slide,
a portable sound system, and a generator. All of
this will help our churches to reach out to their
communities and attract folks to come to their
events, where they can hear the gospel and begin
to build relationships with the local church.
Call the office to reserve your date!

From the DOM’s Desk
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Summer is in full swing and I pray you are all enjoying all that goes with this season. Our churches have either just
finished VBS or gearing up to start their VBS. What a great opportunity to share Jesus with so many in our communities. Cindy and I have been trying to get to as many churches for their VBS as we possibly can.
C-3 will be starting on July 25. We are very excited to have so many of our churches and their youth involved in
this mission outreach ministry. Pray for our young people, as they will be working hard and sharing the love of Jesus on the work sites. Pray for Rev. Ryan Edwards, pastor of Clarendon Baptist Church, who will be our C-3 pastor
for the week. Pray that he will bring life-changing messages to our youth and that God will use him in a mighty way.
Our Block Party Ministry Trailer has been a big success! Many churches have already reserved the trailer for use
at their church outreach events. If your church would like to use this wonderful ministry tool, simply call Teresa at
the CBA office and she will be glad to send you the packet of forms and information, so that you may reserve the
trailer for the date your church needs.
We are in the middle of our annual nomination process for our association. This is an important process, as it recommends those who will work on the different teams and help lead our association ministry work throughout the
year. Brother Charlie Martin, from Corinth Baptist Church, is the chair of this team. Pray for him and the other
members of the nominating team, that God would direct them to the right people to work in all of the different positions. Our association does not function without men and women, who are dedicated to the work and ministry of
the Lord.
I will be going on a mission trip to Nicaragua in July. I will travel with a group of men and women from several of
our CBA churches. We will minister the love of Jesus to the folks at the Chinandega dump. Our association has
had a great impact in the lives of the people that live there for several years. We have now expanded this mission
partnership as an association wide partnership.
There are several ways you can become involved in helping the men and women, boys and girls in Chinandega.
First and foremost, you can pray. Pray that God will watch over these dear people. Pray that the workers will continue to increase. Pray that they will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior, more and more each day. Second, you can sponsor a child for $10 a month. This $10 provides a hot meal each day; 2 doctor visits each year; 1
dental visit each year; medications they may need; and a school uniform.
If you would like to sponsor a child, simply call Teresa at the CBA office, and she will be glad to set you up. You will
receive a photo of your child and the details about where they live, what they do, etc. What a great way to help a
child in need and know for certain, that the money you send will go exactly where it is supposed to go.
If your church would like to have someone come and share about our partnership, please call us at the CBA office
and we can help set it up.
May you all have a blessed and happy Independence Day and may you enjoy the rest of your summer.
Blessings,
Dave
