Baptists Convene In San Antonio
About 6000 Texas Baptists gathered in San Antonio in Oct 1921 for the 91st session of the Baptist General Convention of Texas at the convention center. The meeting debated definitions of a regular missionary church and how to elect the 192 member Executive Board and spotlighted the Good News Texas campaign with a $1.5 million multimedia push to reach Texans nationwide. Executive Director James H. Landes urged churches to leverage TV radio newspapers and billboards to spread the Gospel to every Texan over age two. Convention President James G. Harris forecast a significant year ahead for Texas Baptists.
