SUMMARY:SBC Exec Comm to host online prayer gathering on Good Friday
DESCRIPTION:What: A time of focused prayer amid the global COVID-19 pandemic \nWhen: 12 p.m. CDT\, April 10 \nWhere: sbc.net/pray and the SBC Executive Committee Facebook page \nNASHVILLE (BP) — As Southern Baptists navigate the crisis resulting from the COVID-19 global pandemic\, Ronnie Floyd\, president and CEO of the SBC Executive Committee\, has called for a special time of prayer. \nThe SBC Good Friday Online Prayer Gathering will take place at 12 p.m. CDT April 10. While plans are still being finalized\, led by Floyd and other leaders from across the SBC\, the event will be livestreamed at sbc.net/pray and on the SBC Executive Committee’s Facebook page. \nThe format will include times of Scripture reading and focused prayer to address specific needs related to the pandemic\, according to Floyd\, who is inviting and encouraging all Southern Baptists to participate. \n“We have never been here before\,” Floyd said. “Our prayers need to match these challenges. Gather friends and families everywhere and let’s talk to God about where we are. We need God to intervene miraculously. Together we must pray and be on mission with God.” \nFloyd said the timing is critical. As the pandemic has prompted great uncertainty and anxiety throughout the United States and the entire world\, Easter weekend provides an extraordinary opportunity to share the Gospel. \n“We believe the work of our Southern Baptist churches across America\, as well as what we do together across the entire world\, provides a great footprint of God’s work throughout the regions and states in America and across the globe\,” Floyd said. “Instead of coming together to hear someone preach or sing\, we are coming together to pray in this major crisis as we face Easter weekend with hope.” \nThe full list of participants joining the Floyds for the event include: \n— Julio Arriola\, executive director of Hispanic relations and mobilization for the SBC Executive Committee \n— Marshal Ausbery\, SBC first vice president and senior pastor of Antioch Baptist Church in Fairfax Station\, Va. \n— Jacob Boss\, overseas worker in Europe \n— Paul Chitwood\, president of the International Mission Board \n— Kevin Ezell\, president of the North American Mission Board \n— Donna Gaines\, pastor’s wife and founder and president of ARISE2Read in Memphis\, Tenn. \n— Steve Gaines\, senior pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church in Cordova\, Tenn.\, and former SBC president \n— J.D. Greear\, SBC president and lead pastor of The Summit Church in Durham\, N.C. \n— Jeremiah Lepasana\, lead pastor of Bible Church International in Randolph\, N.J. \n— Marci Parrott\, pastor’s wife and CEO of Ruby & Root in Huntersville\, N.C. \n— Ronnie Parrott\, lead pastor of Christ Community Church in Huntersville\, N.C. \n— Heiden Ratner\, senior pastor of WALK Church in Las Vegas. \n“We have never been here before\,” Floyd said. “Our prayers need to match these challenges. Gather friends and families everywhere and let’s talk to God about where we are. We need God to intervene miraculously. Together we must pray and be on mission with God.”

SUMMARY:SBC Seminaries Sunday
DESCRIPTION:The estimated 46\,000 autonomous churches that cooperate with the Southern Baptist Convention pool their resources to support the work of the six theological seminaries. The Convention operates these seminaries to train its ministers and Christian workers. The six are: \n\nThe Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville\, Kentucky (established 1859);\nThe Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth\, Texas (1908);\nNew Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in New Orleans\, Louisiana (1917);\nGateway Seminary of the Southern Baptist Convention in Ontario\, California (1944);\nThe Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest\, North Carolina (1951); and\nMidwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City\, Missouri (1957).\n\nCollectively the six seminaries have been given a challenging mission: “to prepare God-called men and women for vocational service in Baptist churches and in other Christian ministries throughout the world through programs of spiritual development\, theological studies\, and practical preparation in ministry.” \nSeminary-trained students are trained to go and evangelize\, baptize\, disciple\, and teach individuals across the nation and around the world (Matthew 28:18-20). The Convention has committed itself to provide seminary education and training at the lowest cost possible so graduates are not burdened with debt as they embark on this noble quest. \nThe six seminaries are funded in part by the Convention’s Cooperative Program. The Cooperative Program helps fund ministries and missions through cooperating state conventions and the Southern Baptist Convention. About 22 percent of all Cooperative Program contributions received by the Southern Baptist Convention are directed to the six theological seminaries and the SBC Historical Library and Archives. In addition\, the seminaries are supported by endowments\, donations\, tuition\, and fees. \nSee Related Story.

SUMMARY:National Day of Prayer
DESCRIPTION:The National Day of Prayer exists to mobilize unified public prayer for America. \nTURN TO GOD IN PRAYER\nThe National Day of Prayer is observed annually on the first Thursday in May. This day of observance\, designated by the United States Congress\, asks people “to turn to God in prayer and meditation.” The modern law formalizing the annual National Day of Prayer observance was enacted in 1952\, and each year since\, the President of the United States has signed a proclamation encouraging all Americans to pray on this day. \nPRAY THROUGHOUT THE DAY\nThis year’s National Day of Prayer will be observed on May 7\, and the theme verse is Habakkuk 2:14: “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” However\, due to events around the world\, we will not gather in churches or town squares to pray. Instead\, we are encouraging individuals to pray throughout the day and to invite others to join with them online so that we may fill the earth with prayers of hope. \n#NATIONALDAYOFPRAYER\nWe ask that you post your written prayer by text or video on your own social media site with the hashtag #NationalDayofPrayer and join the prayer movement this year as we petition God to move in mighty ways across our communities\, our country\, and our world. \nAs a church\, you can make short prayer videos from key community leaders\, pastors\, and national leaders to support each area of emphasis and post these prayer videos at different times throughout the day. \nDownload social media graphics. \nSchedule for Thursday\, May 7:\n9:00 am – Pray for your community and neighbors.\n10:00 am – Pray for churches and their impact to share the Gospel.\n11:00 am – Pray for those that are vulnerable and those that have lost loved ones due to COVID-19.\nNoon – Pray for businesses and those that have lost their jobs.\n1:00 pm – Pray for teachers\, schools\, students\, and parents.\n2:00 pm – Pray for those serving in the military.\n3:00 pm – Pray for healthcare workers\, first responders\, and those in the service industry.\n4:00 pm – Pray for city leaders and state officials.\n5:00 pm – Pray for the President and national leaders.\n6:00 pm – Pray for a movement of God across our country and around the world.\n7:00 pm – Join with others across the country on your front porch and sing “Amazing Grace.” \nFinally\, we invite everyone to conclude the day with the National Day of Prayer Broadcast: Pray God’s Glory across the Earth\, which will be presented from 8:00pm to 10:00pm EST on GodTV\, Daystar\, Facebook Live\, and additional outlets. \nSOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION Prayer Opportunities:\n  \n \nSBC President J.D. Greear offers tips for fasting as well as prayer points in the article\, A call to a day of fasting and prayer. \nThe Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention also has developed a prayer guide\, urging participants to pray for the Seven Centers of Influence on the National Day of Prayer.

SUMMARY:SBC Advance: An online ministry update
DESCRIPTION:While the 2020 SBC Annual Meeting has been canceled for the first time since 1945\, Southern Baptists will still be provided with an opportunity to hear from the entities of the Southern Baptist Convention through an online event June 2 hosted by the SBC Executive Committee. \nSBC Advance\, a two-hour online event\, is not designed to be a substitute for the annual meeting\, but will provide ministry updates from and interviews with all SBC entity and auxiliary heads\, as well as SBC President J.D. Greear. The event will be livestreamed at SBCadvance.com starting at 3 p.m. EDT Tuesday\, June 2\, 2020. \n“SBC Advance is about telling the story of what God is doing through our churches and the work we are doing together regionally\, statewide\, nationally and internationally\,” said SBC EC president and CEO Ronnie Floyd. “This online gathering will not just be informational\, but inspirational for all Southern Baptists. It will also lead us to have a greater commitment and sharper focus on sharing the Good News of Jesus with the whole world. This online experience is for all Southern Baptist laypeople\, pastors\, church staff members\, church leaders\, denominational employees and missionaries here in America and across the world.” \nGreear will provide a presidential update during the event as well. \n“Southern Baptists have always united around the need to see people come to saving faith in Jesus\,” Greear said. “While we may be apart right now\, SBC Advance will allow us to hear about the great things God is doing and will call us to seek His face for the future. While the times are challenging\, this event will remind us of who we are: a convention of more than 47\,500 churches that stand for the Gospel above all and the need to get the message of Jesus Christ to the nations.” \nThe 2020 SBC Annual Meeting was scheduled to be held in Orlando June 9-10\, but the COVID-19 global pandemic forced Southern Baptist leaders to cancel the event for the first time since World War II. \nBut while Southern Baptists may not be gathering physically\, SBC Advance will provide the opportunity to gather virtually and remember the fundamental reason for Southern Baptist cooperation — missions. \n“We must not lose connection to one another nor waver in our shared commitment to get the Gospel to the nations\,” IMB president Paul Chitwood said in a statement. “SBC Advance will help us do what we must do: keep our focus on our mission.” \nVideo updates from the entities\, annual reports\, audited financial statements\, and other updated reporting data will be provided at the time of the event.
