___ Texas CBF seeks new coordinator. Health concerns have forced Dan and Barbara Kent to step down as the first coordinators for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship in Texas. The Kents, of Fort Worth, will retire from the position Dec. 31. They were appointed by Texas CBF in March, but Dan Kent suffered a stroke shortly thereafter.

Kerry Horn, moderator of CBF in Texas, said a search committee will be appointed soon.
