Dear Pastor,
Grace and peace and blessings to you and your congregation from God our Father, the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray this letter finds both you and your church doing well and enjoying the grace and favor of God.
I am excited to announce that our 2024 Adjourned Session will take place on Thursday, December 5th, beginning at 10:00 am. This year we will convene at Hill St. Missionary Baptist Church (2203 Dixie Hwy, 40210). Our theme "It's Time to Move Forward" conveys the message urging us to persevere and continue pressing towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus!
We look forward to this session and doing things a little different:
● Pastor’s Luncheon: A special opportunity for fellowship among CDBA pastors to share insights and support one another in advancing our churches and district as we Move Forward!.
● Conversation with Police Chief Paul Humphrey: An insightful dialogue with our newly installed police chief.
● Evening Sermon: Reverend Nerrick L. Jackson, pastor of Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church will bless us by preaching at 6:30 PM.
For your convenience, attached is the Adjourned Session Church Registration Form. This year’s registration is $250.00 (or more) per congregation. Pre-registration will begin Thursday, November 21st and will end Thursday, December 5th. You can also register your church online by scanning the QR code included at the end of this letter.
Please urge your choir members to take part in our CDBA Mass Choir (info enclosed) who will be rendering the music at our 6:30 closing session.
I urge you to join us in prayer for the success of this year’s session, as we seek God's glory, encourage our pastors, and enrich our churches. We eagerly anticipate our time together, and trust that it will be as fruitful as our previous gatherings. Until we meet, may the Lord watch over you.
In His Name,
Rev. Robert C. Drake Sr., Moderator,
