Dear Friend,
I write on behalf of Bishop Dr. Kelvin Jones, the Baptist Stalwart that took over from Dr. William M. Connor when he passed years ago and wish you a Merry Christmas 2012 on behalf of the entire Mount Carmel Baptist Church - St. Kitts Congregation.
May you enjoy the day to the fullest and spend some good family time reflecting on Jesus - The Greatest and Best Gift the world was ever given.
If the Lord tarries, 2013 will mark 50 years of Radical Baptist Witness across St. Kitts - Nevis. Dr. Jones, who preached on Christmas Sunday, just two days ago, reminded his listeners of the Grand 50th Anniversary Celebration that we should plan, and that he was a founding member of the First Baptist Church in St. Kitts - Nevis - The Antioch Baptist Church. He stated that he was later was commissioned to Lodge by the late Dr. William Connor where he started a Sunday School then founded the Mount Carmel Baptist Church.
He told of Pastor Connor's Last Days in the USA and how he told him by his bedside to take over the mission and continue the great work that God was doing through the Baptists. Pastor Jones, although serving for over 52 years in ministry is still a Solid Preacher, preaching the uncompromising word of God. The Dare 2 Be Different Media Team (Internet TV - www.d2bdtv.com and Radio - www.d2bdradio.com) took this video clip from part of last Sunday's Message.
Pastor Jones made a heart touching statement from the pulpit and charged the youth to carry on the Legacy of Dr. William M. Connor and continue on with his vision. He reminded all listeners to never give up and shared of having moved to St. Kitts from Nevis and having to live in an empty house and then later work for KAWAJA FOOD CENTRE for $5 per week, then moving to the customs for $25 per week. He encouraged all by saying, "God will take care no matter the situation." Hear part of his encouragement in this video clip just 2 days old.
Dr. Jones challenged the congregation to use their ideas to let the Baptist Legacy live on and after service, he spoke with a few of us and told us that Mount Carmel needed to play an active role in celebrating 50 years and charged the group to come up with some ideas to present to the church in the evening after I preached the word of God.
When ever I'm given a challenge with regards to God's Kingdom business, I ensure that its given much prayer, thought, and top quality presentation. We would therefore like you, our global following to know about the Mount Carmel Baptist Church's creative, innovative, technological ideas to celebrate 50 Radical Years of Baptist Ministry and to lead the way in writing the next 50 years.
1. We will be establishing the Dr. William Connor Foundation(www.drwilliamconnorfoundation.org) to serve and empower people and other Baptist Ministries around the Caribbean and the world. It is through this foundation we plan to raise funds to EMPOWER AND GIVE BACK TO OTHERS, support missions and other ministries and not just take, take, take. We also plan to construct The New 21st Century Mount Carmel Baptist Complex which will house a 21st Century Sanctuary, Factories so that none of our members are ever unemployed, a youth club house, A Mall, Complex Pool for pool parties and other events, basketball court, football and cricket field and nextball / volley ball spaces. (Architectural Projections by GHW Architects Inc)
The current sanctuary would be renovated to house a dinner and a movie theatre and auditorium on the inside and the outside will become a drive in movie and National Christian Family Social Area.
Stay posted at: www.drwilliamconnorfoundation.org
2. We will be launching a local, regional and international appeal and walking in Dr. William Connor's Footsteps to plant more ministries. Therefore, we will be starting Training Unions in every Parish in St. Kitts - Nevis during 2013 and recruiting directors all across the world and supporting them by building websites, printing, etc and we will establish The Dr. William Connor Summer Exchange Camps and The Dr. William Connor Annual Children's Empowerment Rally
3. We will be starting the Mount Carmel Baptist Mobile Mission and getting radical about Evangelism. The Mount Carmel Baptist Train will make several stops around St. Kitts - Nevis during 2013 preaching and also replaying some of the great sermons from the late Pastor William Connor.
4. We will be finally ordaining Brother Valston Johnson as a minister of the gospel
5. We will be contacting churches all around the globe and sending our preachers to preach Dr. William Connor Memorial Crusades all around the globe and also give them exposure to missions. Churches that agree to host our preachers, we'll be donating to them a website or t-shirts, or pens, pencils or other promotional products or show them how to start their own internet radio and tv stations. While overseas, during the day, we'll hold empowerment sessions, reach the schools, hospitals etc, spread the gospel and share with the world about the late Dr. William Connor.
6. We will be releasing The Mount Carmel Baptist Boys Choir and Girls Choir Albums at www.djmerci.com and hosting The Dr. William Connor 50th Anniversary Memorial Concert to showcase God's talent and the next generation that will write the next 50 years of Baptist History.
Kindly pray for us as we carry on this Radical Baptist Work across the world and we look forward to receiving your invitation to preach at your church and empower your members soon - Email: office@mountcarmelbaptistonfire.com .
We fully believe in using all our members and their talents to the fullest degree, not keeping them back and giving them as much exposure as we can as they have the potential to do great things and that is what we'll be encouraging alot of in 2013.
Kindly enjoy this dance piece from Sister Jovil from last Sunday's Service. It was truly a blessing to all.
Thanks to our new adoption by Dare 2 Be Different International - www.daretobedifferentskn.com, we are now reaching the world using the internet and social media and getting contacts from many individuals across the globe whose lives were once impacted by the Mount Carmel Baptist Church or at The Antioch Baptist Church while Bishop Dr. Kelvin Jones served.
Christmas Cheers!
