Messenger Cards
Messengers are individuals elected by cooperating churches that are affiliated with the Kentucky Baptist Convention. They are entitled to vote in all business sessions of the annual meeting. Messengers vote their individual consciences as opposed to being given voting instructions by their church.

The following are the requirements for sending messengers to the Kentucky Baptist Convention as stated in Article III of the KBC Constitution:

"The membership of this Body shall consist of messengers from cooperating affiliated Baptist churches as follows:
  1. Two messengers from each church having 100 members or less, which is in friendly cooperation with this Convention: is sympathetic with its purposes and work; and has during the fiscal year preceding been a bona fide contributor to the Convention's work.
  2. One additional messenger for each such church shall be allowed for each additional 250 members, or for each $250 contributed to the Cooperative Program during the fiscal year preceding the annual meeting, but no churches may be allowed more than 10 messengers.
  3. Messengers' cards will be sent, upon request, to indivudal churches who meet the above requirements, from the State Convention office.
  4. Ballots will be issued to each messenger at the time one registers."

Churches requesting messenger cards should call the Kentucky Baptist Convention Executive Office at (502) 489-3374 or (866) 489-3374.
