Paul Powell to Be Keynote Speaker
1999 TBC Annual Convocation
July 16-17, San Angelo, Texas

Paul Powell, former Executive Director for the Southern Baptist Convention Annuity Board, will keynote the 1999 Texas Baptists Committed Convocation in San Angelo, July 16-17.  The Kingdom of God will be the theme for this year's convocation. 

The convocation is always a non-political event.  We do not discuss the convention controversy.  The purpose of the convocation is to provide a break during the year to give our supporters a 24-hour dose of fellowship, encouragement and spiritual direction.
