Welford’s calling is to work with young adults to help them discern their identity in Christ and grow as missional leaders in that identity. To that end, Welford serves the Baptist General Association of Virginia as the Kairos Initiative Coordinator. In this role he helps to build and strengthen collegiate and young adult ministries throughout the BGAV, on college campuses, through local churches, Fresh Expressions of church and collegiate focused church plants. Welford specializes in the areas of leadership development, forming mentoring relationships, personality assessments, visioning and strategic planning for ministry.
