It was great to see our alumni at the Southern Baptist Convention this past week! From reminiscing about their time at Carey to sharing where life has taken them since, the room was full of energy and connection. A special thank you to President Burnett for the updates on William Carey University and where we are headed in the future. Looking forward to SBC 2027!

"As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." -1 Peter 10-11
