Safari Club convention specializes in unique adventures

At the Safari Club International Hunter’s Convention on Saturday, I came across one of the best tag lines I have seen for a company specializing in services for the outdoor adventurer: “Specializing in wet, cold and miserable.”

safari club expo

Walking the aisles at the Safari Club International Hunter’s Convention on Saturday, I came across one of the best tag lines I have seen for a company specializing in services for the outdoor adventurer.

Beneath the company’s name it read, “specializing in wet, cold and miserable.”

Though the purpose of this phrase was to draw one’s attention to a company that helps sportsmen arrange hunts in Alaska, it probably could apply to just about anywhere. Whether one hunts, fishes or takes horse packing trips into the wilderness, conditions in the outdoors are rarely what the average person considers pleasant.

Even so, the convention was packed with people walking the showroom floor in search of the right opportunity to enjoy being wet, cold and miserable. Vying for our attention were outfitters representing countries from around the world. And although the countries of Africa were probably the most numerous, outfitters from Asia, Canada, Europe, Mexico and multiple U.S. states also were scattered throughout the show.

Some outfitters had openings remaining for upcoming 2018 hunting or fishing seasons, but many were already booking for 2019 and beyond.

As I wandered, I couldn’t help but wonder what it might be like to sit around a crackling campfire in a Russian brown bear camp, experience the beauty of a Mongolian sunrise, hear a lion’s roar in the jungle, or watch the tops of moose antlers swaying through a patch of alders. Then I compared the price tags for those experiences with my bank balance and realized I may be wondering for a while.

Day auction deals

During my visit to the 2017 edition of this convention, someone told me the best deals on hunting or fishing trips could be found during the “day auctions,” a sharp contrast with the fundraising auctions that generally take place in the evening hours during events such as this.

Upon seeing the “Day Auction” sign, I decided to take a closer look.

The number of empty seats was a surprise, especially with the emcee already introducing the auctioneer. Then just as I was settling into a chair, my friend, Daniel Brisendine, invited me to join him at a table closer to the front. As we sat down, Daniel leaned over and said, “This is the place to buy a hunt. You can get a good hunt for much less than you will pay on the show floor.”

“Sounds like familiar advice,” I thought.

First up was a 7-day Russian brown bear hunt for a single hunter, though additional hunters and non-hunters were welcome. They just increase the cost. With an estimated value of $10,000, the one-on-one guided adventure includes cabin or tent accommodations, meals, the trophy fee and field preparation of the downed animal. Getting to and from Moscow is up to you.

The auctioneer went to work with the fast-talking pitch typical of that profession, and soon found the right tempo for encouraging bids. After several minutes of working the crowd, the auctioneer closed the bidding with the exclamation, “Sold, for $3,000!”

A good deal to be sure, and not the only one. During the next hour, I watched as hunt after hunt sold for much less than the donor’s valuation. Those deals included a $19,000 hunt for sable and roan in South Africa that sold for $9,000 and a five-day hunt for New Zealand Rusa deer that went for $3,500. The estimated value was $20,600.

Of course, there were some hunts that demanded a lot of attention and drew bids a little closer to the donor’s estimated value. One was a 10-day British Columbia moose hunt that went for $11,000. Another was a 10-day hunt for Cape Buffalo in Mozambique. It sold for $13,000 and did so in quick order. The bidding went fast enough that one didn’t dare scratch his ear for fear of accidentally getting in on the bidding.

If you have the chance to attend the SCI convention in the future, don’t overlook the Day Auction. Perhaps you might pick up the wet, cold and miserable outdoor adventure of a lifetime at a price you can afford.

Southern Baptists poised to ban congregations with women pastors

June 6, 2024 / 8:52 PM EDT / CBS/AP

From its towering white steeple and red-brick facade, to its Sunday services filled with rousing gospel hymns and evangelistic sermons, First Baptist Church of Alexandria, Virginia, bears many of the classic hallmarks of a Southern Baptist church.

On a recent Sunday, its pastor for women and children, Kim Eskridge, urged members to invite friends and neighbors to an upcoming vacation Bible school — a perennial Baptist activity — to help "reach families in the community with the gospel."

But because that pastor is a woman, First Baptist's days in the Southern Baptist Convention may be numbered.

At the SBC's annual meeting June 11-12 in Indianapolis, representatives will vote on whether to amend the denomination's constitution to essentially ban churches with any women pastors — and not just in the top job. That measure received overwhelming approval in a preliminary vote last year.

Leaders of First Baptist — which has given millions to Southern Baptist causes and has been involved with the convention since its 19th century founding — are bracing for a possible expulsion.

"We are grieved at the direction the SBC has taken," the church said in a statement.

And it's not alone.

Ban could affect hundreds of congregations

By some estimates, the proposed ban could affect hundreds of congregations and have a disproportionate impact on predominantly Black churches.

The vote is partly the culmination of events set in motion two years ago.

That's when a Virginia pastor contacted SBC officials to contend that First Baptist and four nearby churches were "out of step" with denominational doctrine that says only men can be pastors. The SBC Credentials Committee launched a formal inquiry in April.

Southern Baptists disagree on which ministry jobs this doctrine refers to. Some say it's just the senior pastor, others that a pastor is anyone who preaches and exercises spiritual authority.

In a Baptist tradition that prizes local church autonomy, critics say the convention shouldn't enshrine a constitutional rule based on one interpretation of its non-binding doctrinal statement.

By some estimates, women are working in pastoral roles in hundreds of SBC-linked churches, a fraction of the nearly 47,000 across the denomination.

But critics say the amendment would amount to a further narrowing in numbers and mindset for the nation's largest Protestant denomination, which has moved steadily rightward in recent decades.

They also wonder if the SBC has better things to do.

It has struggled to respond to sexual abuse cases in its churches. A former professor at a Southern Baptist seminary in Texas was indicted in May on a charge of falsifying a record about alleged sexual abuse by a student in order to obstruct a federal investigation into sexual misconduct in the convention.

SBC membership has dipped below 13 million, nearly a half-century low. Baptismal rates are in long-term decline.

The amendment, if passed, wouldn't prompt an immediate purge. But it could keep the denomination's leaders busy for years, investigating and ousting churches.

Predominantly Black churches possibly most impacted

Many predominantly Black churches have men as lead pastors but assign pastor titles to women in other areas, such as worship and children's ministries.

"To disfellowship like-minded churches...based on a local-church governance decision dishonors the spirit of cooperation and the guiding tenets of our denomination," wrote Pastor Gregory Perkins, president of the SBC's National African American Fellowship, to denominational officials.

The controversy complicates the already-choppy efforts by the mostly White denomination to  diversify and overcome its legacy of slavery and segregation.

Amendment proponents say the convention needs to reinforce its doctrinal statement, the Baptist Faith and Message, which says the office of pastor is "limited to men as qualified by Scripture."

"If we won't stand on this issue and be unapologetically biblical, then we won't stand on anything," said amendment proponent Mike Law, pastor of Arlington Baptist Church in Virginia.

Since Baptist churches are independent, the convention can't tell them what to do or whom to appoint as a pastor.

But the convention can decide which churches are in and which are out. And even without a formal amendment, its Executive Committee has begun telling churches with women pastors that they're out. That included one of its largest , Saddleback Church of Southern California.

When Saddleback and a small Kentucky church appealed to the annual meeting in 2023, delegates overwhelmingly refused to take them back.

Prior to the vote, retired pastor Rick Warren, who founded Saddleback, made a futile appeal to members not to move forward with expelling his church.

"I'm not asking you to agree with my church," Warren told the convention at the time. "I am asking you to act like a Southern Baptist."  

The amendment would give such enforcement actions more teeth.

Some churches with women pastors quit on their own in the past year. They range from Elevation Church, a North Carolina megachurch, to First Baptist of Richmond, Virginia, which had close SBC ties from the convention's founding.

Law contended the issue has been a "canary in the coalmine" for liberal denominations, several of which began ordaining women and later LGBTQ+ people.

"Southern Baptists are facing a decisive moment," he said in a video on a pro-amendment website. "Here's the trajectory of doing nothing: Soon Southern Baptist churches will start openly supporting homosexual clergy, same-sex marriage and eventually transgenderism."

Women pastors for generations in other denominations

Others point out that Pentecostal and other denominations have had women pastors for generations and remain theologically conservative.

Some SBC churches with women pastors are heavily involved with the convention, while others have minimal connections and identify more closely with historically Black or other progressive denominations.

Also, some SBC churches interpret the 2000 faith statement as only applying to senior pastors. As long as the church leader is male, women can serve other pastoral roles, they say.

Such churches may leave if SBC leaders interfere with congregations following "their conscience, biblical convictions, and values by recognizing women can receive a pastoral gift from God in partnership with male leadership," said Dwight McKissic, a pastor from Arlington, Texas, on the social media platform X.

Other churches say women can be in any role, including senior pastor, and churches can agree to disagree if they embrace most of the SBC faith statement.

That category includes First Baptist of Alexandria. Though its current senior pastor is male, it recognizes "God's calling to ordain any qualified individual, male or female, for pastoral ministry," the church said in a statement.

First Baptist leaders declined interview requests, but it has posted extensively about the issue on its website.

It said while it plans to send representatives to the SBC annual meeting, it was warned to expect a motion to deny them voting privileges.

"I do believe we need to be heard and represented," Senior Pastor Robert Stephens told members in a video-recorded meeting.

The SBC's top administrative body opposes the amendment. Investigating churches' compliance would consume an unsustainable amount of time and energy over something that shouldn't be a litmus test for fellowship, wrote Jeff Iorg, president of the SBC Executive Committee, in a Baptist Press commentary.

Baptist Women in Ministry, which began within the SBC in the 1980s but now works in multiple Baptist denominations, has taken note. The Rev. Meredith Stone, its executive director, said some women pastors within the SBC have reached out for support.

The group plans to release a documentary, "Midwives of a Movement," about 20th century trailblazers for women in Baptist ministry, on the eve of the SBC meeting.

"As they are saying women have less value to God than men in the church, we want to make sure that women know they do have equal value and that there are no limits to how they follow Christ in the work of the church," Stone said.

MOSCOW (AP) — Russia’s top state criminal investigation agency on Thursday announced the arrest of a French citizen accused of collecting information on military issues, a move that comes as relations between Russia and France have grown increasingly tense over the fighting in Ukraine.

The arrest was announced just as France hosted world leaders on the 80th anniversary of D-Day on Thursday. Russia wasn’t invited.

Russia’s Investigative Committee said the suspect, whom it didn’t identify, is accused of failing to register with authorities as a foreign agent while collecting “information about military and military-technical activities of the Russian Federation.” It added that the information could be used to the detriment of the country’s security.

Russia’s state news agency Tass identified the arrested French citizen as Laurent Vinatier, an employee of the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue (HD), a Geneva-based nongovernment organization.

HD confirmed Vinatier’s detention in a statement released to The Associated Press.

“We are aware that Laurent Vinatier, an adviser at the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue (HD), has been detained in Russia,” it said. “We are working to get more details of the circumstances and to secure Laurent’s release.”

French President Emmanuel Macron told French television Thursday night that the French citizen was “in no way…working for France” and that he “works for a Swiss NGO founded by former UN chief Kofi Annan and which carries out diplomacy of working discussions.″

He is receiving consular protection, Macron said.

Vinatier’s LinkedIn page, which describes him as a “conversationalist,” says he has worked for the center for over a decade and indicates that he has had a focus mostly on former Soviet republics, Turkey and the Middle East over the years.

Russia’s Investigative Committee posted a video showing officers detaining the suspect at a cafe and driving him to the committee’s Moscow offices for interrogation. The charges carry a penalty of up to five years in prison.

The arrest comes during a strain in Russian-French ties that followed French President Emmanuel Macron’s statements about the possibility of deploying the country’s troops in Ukraine.

Moscow has warned that French soldiers would be legitimate targets for Russia if they are sent to Ukraine.

The charges against the French citizen are based on a recently approved law that requires anyone who collects information on military issues to register with authorities as a foreign agent.

Human rights activists have criticized the law and other newly endorsed legislation as part of a multi-pronged Kremlin crackdown on independent media and political activists intended to muzzle criticism of its actions in Ukraine.

Arrests on charges of spying and collecting sensitive data have become increasingly frequent in Russia since it sent troops into Ukraine in February 2022.

Recent high-profile arrests include Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who was arrested on espionage charges in March 2023, and U.S.-Russian journalist Alsu Kurmasheva, who was taken into custody in October 2023 for failing to register as a “foreign agent.”
