1999 Paige Patterson
PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS 113 President's Address Southern Baptist Convention Atlanta, Georgia June 15, 1999 By Paige Patterson Fellow messengers to the 142nd annual session of the Southern Baptist Convention, when on February 19, 1812, Adoniram and Ann Hasseltine Judson bid tearful farewells to dubious family and friends, they opened a chapter in the history of Christianity not only for themselves but also for all Baptists in America. As America faded into the Western horizon, the sails of the Caravan puffed with prevailing trade winds, and the Judsons settled in for an adventure - the precise nature of which they could never have predicted. Hopes were more buoyant than the bark on which they sailed. But every one of those hopes would soon be tried by fires so insufferable as to rage even if inundated by the fathomless ocean which foamed around them. The Judsons departed as Congregationalists, but minds open and Bibles read in anticipation of a forthcoming meeting with Carey, Marshman, and Ward (Baptist missionaries in Calcutta) caused them upon arrival in Calcutta to seek believer's baptism and affiliation with Baptists. Their destination had been India, but life's destiny for the Judsons lay another ship voyage away - in Burma. They imagined a missionary bungalow in which to live but instead discovered a vermin-filled Burmese dungeon. Anticipating a congregation of believers, they labored for six years without a convert. Growing old together was not to be since Ann died and was buried in a lonely Burman grave. Sarah Hall Boardman, a second wife, met a similar fate. -
Adoniram Judson's Mission to Burma
Adoniram Judson’s Mission to Burma Missionaries throughout history have risked everything to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with those who need to hear about His love. Some have traveled great distances, like Adoniram Judson. Some have shared not only the Gospel with people but food, medicine, and education as well. In this game, your job is to deliver the Word of God, food, medicine, and education to the people in need. To accomplish this, you will need to answer many questions about this famous missionary to Burma and learn about his part in the story of grace God continues to write on hearts today. To play this game, you will need: 2-4 players The board on the following page The two pages of supply tokens, cut apart The seven pages of quiz cards, cut apart One distinct marker for each player To prepare, shuffle the supply tokens and place them face-down beside the board. Shuffle the quiz cards and place them face-down in a separate pile beside the board. 1. Each player places a marker on one of the solid color spaces on the board. 2. Drawing a quiz card (two variations): For younger players not familiar with the story, the first player draws a card, reads the question and answer (or has it read to them), and then moves the number of spaces indicated on the card. Play then continues to the next player. For older players familiar with the story, the person to the first player’s right draws a card and reads the question. -
