Baptist Studies at Georgetown College

This weekend, Dr. Derek Hatch attended the CBF Kentucky Spring Gathering at Central Baptist Church. It was a wonderful time to (re-)connect with partners across the Commonwealth and share about various initiatives happening at Georgetown College.

Two Georgetown College students were recently preached at First Baptist Church of Morehead, Kentucky as part of that congregation's efforts for Baptist Women in Ministry Month of Advocacy. Sunny Smith (right) preached there on March 2, and Tracy Mandl (left) preached there on March 23. We are grateful for all partner churches who give ministry opportunities to our students.
