Blume: Top five editorials in 2018
Though not in Congress, N.C. pastor at 'peace'
 K. Allan Blume BR Editor | Congratulations Richard Brunson! The Raleigh News and Observer selected five finalists as their 2018 Tar Heel of the Year. Richard Brunson, executive director of Baptists on Mission, was one of the five. It is a honor that he is on this list, but disappointing that Brunson was not named as the winner. He should be. He would respectfully disagree with me and deflect the honor to the many volunteers who served sacrificially through the disaster relief efforts after Hurricane Florence. I should quickly add – they are still serving in much-needed rebuild projects. This is a good time to underscore the great need for volunteers to continue serving those who lost homes, schools, businesses and churches in this record-breaking disaster. Baptists on Mission still need your support. Contact them and volunteer to serve soon. Thank you, Richard Brunson, and thank you volunteers for your kingdom service and faithful witness. “Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these ...” (Matthew 25:40).
