CABC (Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches) –February 18th, 2018
• Please pray for Mr. George Gray, CBAC President, as he provides leadership alongside our Executive Minister and CBAC Council throughout the year. Norman’s home church is Cornwallis Street Baptist Church (Halifax, NS). George was a teacher and school principal for many years before retiring in 2012. We are grateful for his leadership at the church, association and CBAC levels of our denomination. Pray for protection and good health for he and his wife Terri.
• Pray for our CBAC Support Staff as they capably offer their gifts to our family of churches – Jacqueline Derrah, Karen Gillespie-Thorne, Karen Gunn, Wendy Jones, Lottie Reid, Dale Taber, Sandra Vincent & Heather Waugh. The role they play in the life of our CBAC may be largely behind the scenes but is critically important for the day-to-day operations of our organization. Pray for them as they carry out these responsibilities as well for their health and their families. Send them a note this week and thank them for what they do for us.
