CARY, N.C. — Online registration for the 2024 N.C. Baptist annual meeting is now open.
Messengers and guests may visit ncannualmeeting.org to register for the meeting, which is scheduled for Nov. 4-5 at the Koury Convention Center in Greensboro. Because this year’s meeting coincides with Election Day on Nov. 5, the annual meeting features a condensed schedule on Tuesday, with sessions ending by approximately 4 p.m. Messengers and attendees have also been encouraged to vote early.
To register for this year’s annual meeting, messengers should use a unique, personal email address, and they will need their church’s ID and PIN numbers.
A letter containing registration instructions, along with ID and PIN numbers, has been mailed to N.C. Baptist churches. Churches that have an email address on file with the state convention were also sent an email with instructions and their ID and PIN numbers on Sept. 16.
Any churches that did not receive a unique church PIN or ID — which is not the same as a church’s SBC ID — are encouraged to contact the state convention at (800) 395-5102 or (919) 459-5555.
Registrants will receive a ticket for the annual meeting via email after completing their registration. If registrants do not receive their ticket within an hour, they are encouraged to check their email spam folder.
An additional email with the ticket will be sent just prior to the annual meeting. Attendees must present their ticket when they arrive and check in at the annual meeting in November.
The theme of this year’s annual meeting is “On Mission Together” and is based on Matthew 20:26-28, which says, “whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave; just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Messengers and guests will have several opportunities to reflect on being on mission together — especially during the meeting’s breakout sessions, times of worship and during the N.C. Baptist and IMB Sending Celebration taking place on Monday night.
More details about the annual meeting are available online at ncannualmeeting.org. The website will be updated with additional information as the meeting draws closer.
The annual meeting will be preceded by the N.C. Baptist Pastors’ Conference on Nov. 3-4 at the Koury Convention Center. More information and registration details for the pastors’ conference are available at ncpastorsconference.org.
