Texas Baptist Conference of the Deaf

59th Anniversary
June 13 – 15, 2008, Baylor University, Waco, Texas

Greetings from the President-
Grace and peace unto you in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Are you here by chance? No, the Lord brought each and every one of you here at Baylor University for His purpose and pleasure! We are one year away from the great 60th Anniversary of T.B.C.D. making this year 59th Anniversary! T.B.C.D. and the officers welcome each one of you and may you receive unlimited blessings this year.

We are now at half way of F.A.I.T.H. cycle. We started with Fruit of Spirit in 2006 led by Reverend Jeff Brewer of Silent Friend Chapel, Dallas, TX. He used Galatians 5:22-23 to lead the F.A.I.T.H. conference. Reverend Danny Bice led the TBCD 2007 with Philippians 2:5 as we learn about Attitude.

We are honored to have Kevin Clark from North Carolina as our Conference Pastor as he leads us to study the word Integrity, the third letter of F.A.I.T.H. LaBretta Flores of San Antonio Baptist Deaf Mission will lead the music. Family Celebration Night will be a blessing to us all! T.A.S.B.I.D. will be teaching the interpreters during workshop on Saturday morning.

It is the prayers of the Officers and the President that after this conference, we will all go home and share with those who were not able to attend. What to share? The word Integrity and why it is important for every Christian to have this characteristic in their lives. America is in desperate need for more people with integrity.

I encourage you to pray daily for T.B.C.D. to continue to stay strong and be ready to return in 2009. We will look at the fourth letter of F.A.I.T.H. which is Trust.

In HIS Unfailing Love,
Rev. Bill Atwell
TBCD President
