We thank the Lord for Carolyn's dedication and service to the churches of LRBA. We are grateful for her spirit of cooperation and "behind the scenes" work that gives us the ability to effectively minister to LRBA churches and beyond.
Congratulations to Rev. John Duty, who on the first Sunday in August will be celebrating 30 years of service as pastor of Rutledge Road Baptist Church.

The staff and churches of LRBA praise the Lord for this faithful servant whose compassionate ministry has reflected the love of his Savior to his community, the state, and around the world. We congratulate both Bro. John and his wife, Cathy, on this significant milestone of ministry. May God bless you richly as you continue to serve Him.
CHURCH MINISTRY MATCH
How can we serve one another?
Does your church have needs with ministry projects for the community or in your building? LET US KNOW!

Does your church have volunteers who would be willing to help with ministry projects at a sister LRBA church? LET US KNOW!

We can help connect those who have needs to those who can help. Connections like this could lead to great gospel partnerships for the future.

If you are a church in need of assistance, or a church group seeking to help, please contact us at office@lrba.org. We will provide a form to share your information.
If your church would like to partner with churches specifically on renovation or repair needs , please let us know. We have opportunities to connect your labor and skill with churches in need. Contact us at the email above.
