NEGAUNEE, Mich.—Kerry Watkins, director of church engagement for the GARBC, had the pleasure of meeting with pastors of GARBC churches in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan Sept. 27. A few of the pastors drove more than two hours to attend the gathering, hosted by Calvary Baptist Church.

By meeting with the pastors, Kerry wanted “to better meet the needs of churches and pastors that are a part of the Michigan Association of Regular Baptist Churches.” He also shared ideas that are being considered on how the GARBC can encourage relationships among churches.

“There was great fellowship,” Kerry says.

The pastors also heard from Ken Floyd, who shared about upcoming changes to the leadership structure of the MARBC. Ken will retire from his role as executive ministry director of the MARBC at the end of this year. Plans are in place for Doug Crawford, pastor of West Cannon Baptist Church, Belmont, Michigan, to begin serving as director of the association in January 2023.
