Church Vote Announcement


Good Morning Church Family!

The Deacons and the Search Committee are pleased to present Brother Charles Henderson to the membership of Blairland Baptist Church as a candidate for our next Senior Pastor.

This vote will take place in this morning. There is a voting ballot inside your bulletin.  

Please note, 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” this morning, establish the voting body. Ballots will be in the bulletin, and available in the Worship Center for each member.
This is a very exciting time in the life of our church now and for the future. Please prayerfully consider your vote as we seek God’s will in this very important time for Blairland Baptist Church.


We are very proud of our graduates! Please remember them in your prayers as they enter this new phase in their life. We wish you the very best in all you do!
May God  Bless You All!
