BAPTISTS MAY TAKE ON BOSTON CHURCH PARTNER

First Baptist Church will decide April 17 whether to enter into a mission partnership with a Baptist ethnic church in the Boston metro area. If approved, the partnership would involve Radford volunteers assisting a Hispanic or Arabic church with training, vacation Bible school, Bible studies or construction.

More than 100 Virginia Baptist congregations have undertaken such partnerships to strengthen Southern Baptist work in New England. The commitment would be for two years.
