Join us as we celebrate the ordinations of Minister Jamal Hunter and Minister Ronné Wingate Sims.

"Ordained ministry is firmly rooted in Scripture and has been part of Baptist tradition from the very beginning. In every period of our history, Baptists have affirmed the need for persons who would be set apart for ordained ministry, honored and esteemed by the whole people of God.

"In recognizing and calling men and women to ordained ministry, the church exercises its authority to order its life and mission under God. It then recognizes in those it ordains an entrusted authority to instruct, guide, comfort, and challenge in the name of the gospel.

"The ordination service is the church's public recognition of the call." (ABC-USA)
