This vote will take place in the 11:00am service on Sunday, May 18.
Our church bylaws state;
“On all matters that come before the church for action, each member present shall be entitled to vote.”
In that regard, the “members of the church” that are “present” on Sunday, May 18 will establish the voting body. Ballots will be in your bulletin next Sunday.
This is a very exciting time in the life of our church now and for the future. Please pray for guidance as you search for God’s will in this very important vote for Blairland Baptist Church.

Pastor Search
After five months of prayerful consideration, training and guidance by the TN Baptist Mission Board, our Pastor Search Committee recommended Brother Charles Henderson as a candidate to the Deacons for their consideration as our next Pastor. The Deacons have interviewed Brother Charles and now the Pastor Search Committee & the Deacons are excited to recommend Brother Charles Henderson as a candidate to the church congregation for their vote.
We have scheduled this church vote for Sunday morning, May 18th which will be the final step for this candidate recommendation. If this recommended candidate doesn’t receive a high percentage positive vote the Pastor Search Committee will then continue seeking God’s will for the next candidate.
