Vote Lowrie

Well, as you can tell from my previous post, I think I am a little wordy as a blogger. I can't decide if it's because I write for a living or the fact that I like to talk a lot, but regardless, I will try to shorten my blogs in the future to maybe just one point, rather than a news bulletin. haha.

The big news in the Lowrie household is that it's time to get out the vote again for my dad. He announced on Friday that he is going to be running for President of the BGCT for a second term. If you click here, you can read the story on the Baptist Standard website. If you notice at the very bottom of the article, I got my name in there as one of his very proud daughters. Dad is actually the first second-generation president (my Papa was prez back in the '80s), which makes me the first first daughter that was also first granddaughter in convention history! Pretty amazing, right?

Seriously, though, I am so proud of him and all that he has accomplished this year. Dad has such a heart for the people of God, and particulary right now for the BGCT and seeing God work through this organization. The political part of me is ready to make posters, yard signs and buttons, but of course Dad would never let me do that. Wouldn't it be fun, though? Here's my little grassroots campaign - if you are a member of a BGCT church, become a messenger this year for the convention in Houston and VOTE LOWRIE! :)
