2026 Combined Annual Session

Greetings Delegates,

Once again, we are preparing to unite for our Convention’s 4th Annual Joint Session.

The session will be held July 5-10, 2026, in Columbia, Missouri.

This year, the Parkade Baptist Church, located at  2101 North Garth Ave, Columbia, MO.., has graciously volunteered to allow us the use of their spacious facilities.

The Courtyard by Marriott Columbia, located at 3301 LeMone Industrial Blvd., Columbia, MO 65201 is the host hotel, and they are looking forward to hosting this great Convention. The discount room rate is $109.00, and the link will close on June 5, 2026. Co-Host Moderators are Rev. Ron Tooley of the Central District and Rev. Anthony Woods of Mt. Carmel District.

The schedule for the week will prove to challenge and lift your spirit through the speakers, teachers, preachers, the addresses of the auxiliary presidents, the President’s Scholarship Banquet, music from the youth department, and from the music ministry.

We look forward to seeing each of you in Columbia.

Rev. Dr. Linden Bowie, Convention President

Email List Sign-Up and More

We need you to be aware that signing up for ANY Auxiliary email list will automatically add you to the Convention-Wide list. If you don't want or need to get auxiliary specific email, scroll down the signup list to get to the Convention-Wide list (we moved it to the bottom).

If you want to receive Auxiliary specific emails AND NOT those sent convention wide, please drop us a line and we can delete you from the master list.

(added 12/31/2023) We have created a new list called "Prayer Partners" and a new tab called "Prayer". When a prayer request is submitted and approved, it will appear under the "Prayer" tab AND it will be emailed to anyone who signs up for the "Prayer Partners" email list. (currently, signing up for this list WILL NOT add you to the Convention-Wide list to allow current members to add this list without being duplicated on the main list)

(added 05/20/2024) There is a new list, "CLS Instructors", who's intended purpose is to help keep instructors abreast of changes to requirements or procedures that may take place and to provide a place to share reminders about policies and procedures. If you teach in a Congress in Missouri, please join this list! 

Thanks and God Bless!

Ron Elliott, Webmaster
