You can also request information concerning getting into the American Baptist Profile System. They match profiles with churches that request individuals with specific characteristics. If your profile matches what they are looking for, they will send yours.<br /><br />If you are not American Baptist, find out if your denomination has a regional minister/advocate who can point you in the right direction.<br /><br />We are praying with you!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16429236141587234665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-385876778990619768.post-51229786198358524422010-07-08T12:04:27.053-04:002010-07-08T12:04:27.053-04:00Quite enlightening!

Keep sharing your testimony and keep moving forward. God told me he would open doors for me that need to be opened even in hostile environments. He will do the same for you.

God has blessed you with all that you need to pastor in the Spirit's realm, and you can go forward in faith. When we work for God, age takes a vacation!! God does not call us because we are men, women, old , young, black, white, gay, straight, conservative, liberal, rich, poor, or all those other things that label, but GOD has CALLED us and given us gifts for ministry in the Kingdom!!! We must answer the call, no matter what!!! Amen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
