On September 21, during both worship services, church members will be given the opportunity to nominate seven men to serve a three-year term as deacon.

Each man must: 1) Meet the spiritual qualifications of 1 Timothy 3:8-13; 2) Be a member of Lexington Baptist Church for one year; 3) Be 21 years of age by September 1, 2008; 4) Have attended Bible Study at LBC a minimum of 12 times in the past year.
