The Texas Baptist Bible Fellowship (TXBBF) gathered October 12–13, 2026, at City Church in Port Arthur, Texas, for its fall meeting. With the theme “Multiply: Beyond Addition,” the two-day gathering focused on reaching people, planting churches, and sending laborers to advance the Gospel.
Hosted by Pastor Julián Martínez and City Church, the meeting provided an opportunity for pastors and ministry leaders to fellowship, reconnect, encourage one another, and share a renewed vision for church multiplication.
Monday evening began with a time of fellowship and worship, followed by the opening session, “Multiplication > Addition.” Pastor Adam Bailie of Christ Church in Arizona served as the keynote speaker, sharing his heart and passion for church planting and multiplication.
Tuesday morning began with “Praise & Pancakes,” followed by sessions titled “The Multiplication Dialog” and “Multiplication Mindset.” The meeting also featured panel guests Erik Picard, Elvis Leon, Daniel Ward, and Lonnie Lehrman. The gathering concluded with a business meeting.
Throughout the meeting, the emphasis remained on the shared mission of seeing more churches planted, more lives transformed, and more souls reached for Christ.
Attendees expressed appreciation for the encouragement and fellowship. Joe Bourgeois described it as a “Great meeting hosted by a great church,” while Terry Kizer shared, “Such a great meeting!!!”
Those attending left encouraged, refreshed, and excited about what God is doing and what is yet to come. The gathering served as a reminder that churches working together can accomplish more for the Kingdom of God.
As the TXBBF summarized its vision, “Together, we are stronger. Together, we multiply. All for the glory of God!”
