SPONSORSHIP AND ADVISORY COMMITTEES

CHURCH SPONSORSHIP

Independent Baptist College is a church-sponsored college. In 1997, the college sponsorship passed from Trinity Temple Baptist Church of Dallas, who operated it from 1964-1997 to Spring Valley Baptist Church of Fort Worth. This passing of sponsorship came as a result of Trinity Temples desire to pass the college on to another independent Baptist church of like faith and practice. Based upon Spring Valley's desire for this ministry and Trinity Temple acting in accordance with the by-laws, both churches came to an agreement for transfer of sponsorship. Great numbers of like-minded churches share this view of church-sponsored missions and share directly in the support of this mission ministry. While the college is a part of the Spring Valley Baptist Church's ministries, it has been duly incorporated in keeping with the laws of Texas which enables it to own property and develop as a full-scale college should. The college is directed by a body of trustees who are members of the sponsoring church and elected for this purpose. The Spring Valley Baptist Church earnestly solicits prayer for the progress and welfare of the Independent Baptist College.
