Dear Friends,

Another academic year is approaching for collegians in Mobile County. Baptist Campus Ministries is looking forward to reaching, growing and sending collegians in and from Mobile County. Your congregation has an important role to play in reaching collegians. Every Mobile Baptist Association Church can have a ministry to and for collegians! Baptist Campus Ministries wants to assist your congregation in making an eternal impact in the lives of collegians.

Below is a list of events/programs that we have developed to assist our congregations in making that eternal impact!  We want to offer you the opportunities, resources and channels through which to impact the lives of college students. We have a Campus Prayer Walk on the USA Campus coming up in early August that will be foundational in reaching collegians this year. And, as always, we have several opportunities for your congregation to connect with students here in Mobile County through our New Student Welcome Breakfast and Welcome Dinner & Church Fair.

If we can offer any other help, please let us know. We are available to do specialized training in collegiate ministry, lead ministry team trainings, or simply consult with your team concerning collegiate ministry issues.

Thanks for all you do to reach, grow and send collegians here in Mobile County!

In Him,

Rev. Jerrod Brown
Senior Campus Minister

Calling all Mobile Baptists! As you know we have been charged with the task of praying over every street in Mobile County by October 1 of this year. We hope you have gone online to the associational website, prayerwalk.mobilebaptists.org, and registered your church and a page out of the Keith Maps 2016 Street Atlas. We want you to pray for your area as much as possible and cover as many streets as possible by October 1, the day of our Annual Meeting. If you haven't gotten the chance to do that, please make it a priority. If you have already done it great! 

Either way, we are going to have a "Catch-Up" Day on September 16 from 9:00 a.m. – Noon.  We will meet at the associational office (616 Azalea Road) in church vans/personal vehicles and go to areas that have not been marked by any church. We will prayer walk and/or drive, depending on how many participants we have. We will allow priority to areas where your church is located if you haven't been able to get it covered and need help. The more vehicles/vans we have the more areas we can cover. We will split up drivers and walkers on that day. Please help us cover the county in prayer. I can think of no other greater need for our county than prayer! Hope to see you there as we take back precious lost ground!
