Southern Baptist Convention: Church
built 264 days ago
In an effort to learn how churches strike a balance in missions budgeting, the Southern Baptist Texan solicited the comments of Texas Southern Baptists in an online survey last month. The survey covered churches where traditional CP giving was the norm and others where CP and church-based missions were emphasized.

Southern Baptists observe the Lord's Supper with no established frequency. Each local church decides whether it is observed monthly, quarterly, etc. Churches tend to use small individual glasses instead of a "common cup." Non-alcoholic grape juice is nearly always served instead of wine. Both leavened and unleavened bread may be utilized, but the unleavened variety seems to predominate.
EDITORS’ NOTE: The Week of Prayer for North American Missions, part of the 2005 North American Missions Emphasis, is being observed in many Southern Baptist churches March 6-13. Baptist Press will present profiles on the featured missionaries, now through March 15th. For more information on the emphasis, visit www.AnnieArmstrong.com.
One-time Republican candidate, Pat Robertson, continues to be a guest speaker in Southern Baptist circles. During his campaign, he was invited to Second Baptist Church in Houston before an audience to present his views.
