BELIEVERS ACROSS REGION GATHER FOR WEST TENNESSEE EVANGELISM RALLY

Church members and leaders gathered in Union University’s G.M Savage Memorial Chapel Sept. 11 for the West Tennessee Evangelism Rally featuring worship and a message from Clay Hallmark, president of the Tennessee Baptist Convention and senior pastor at First Baptist Church in Lexington, Tenn.

Sponsored by the Tennessee Baptist Mission Board, the rally was held following a series of break-out sessions throughout the afternoon aiming at equipping and encouraging believers to spread the gospel throughout Tennessee and beyond.

Hallmark’s message focused on Luke 14:15-24. His sermon sought to inspire local believers to evangelize the state of Tennessee.

“The majority of our neighbors, the majority of our friends, the majority of the people who live within the shadow of our church building are lost and headed to hell without the love of Jesus Christ,” Hallmark said. “That means tonight their life is hanging in the balance.”
