McDonald named KBC’s ‘Missionary of the Year’

Rev. James McDonald, named the Kentucky Baptist Convention’s Missionary of the Year, received further recognition on June 4 as a KBC representative from Louisville visited Barbourville to see his ministry, Bible Release-time Education Association of Kentucky (BREAK), in action.

Rev. McDonald conducted one of his regular classes last Wednesday at Roadside Baptist Church in Barbourville. The session was lively and spirit-filled, with children, teens and adults participating in songs and question-and-answer activities designed to reinforce the lesson and enhance understanding.

It is fair to say that everyone in attendance left with a clearer and quicker ability to recite the Ten Commandments.

The KBC plans to create a poster using photos and excerpts from the event. The poster will be distributed statewide to highlight the mission and importance of the BREAK ministry.
