National Primitive Baptist Convention Convening Date Survey |
President Bernard C. Yates Recommendation
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. At the 108th Session of our National Convention President Bernard C. Yates made the following recommendation:
Recommendation: Change the Convention’s convening date to begin the 3rd Sunday in July, effective 2017, for two years. This recommendation would be on a trial basis and would be re-evaluated in two years to measure its effectiveness. This recommendation is due to the fact that the school districts have moved the beginning of the school years earlier and a number of our students and educators have not been able to attend. It is the belief of our President that the change would enhance the attendance of our Church School and Chosen Generation Congresses.
