Chapel March 4th: Baptist Bible College
Jeremiah is from Tulsa, OK and felt his calling in high school to become a youth pastor. He is a junior at Baptist Bible College. Matthew 28 is the backbone of Baptist Bible College. Verse 16, specifically tells us to go and tell the world about Jesus. If you aren't living out the great commission, it isn't too late. Jeremiah and Trevor will spend the day at CCA with 5th-12th grade students to talk with them and answer questions about Baptist Bible College. Then, March 28th-30th, 10th/11th/12th grade students have the opportunity to attend college days at the campus. --Audrey
