Borrego submitted his resignation as president of the Hispanic Baptist Pastors' Conference and as a member of the Hispanic Baptist Convention of Texas Executive Board. He was scheduled to undergo a bone marrow test Aug. 9.

"In this historical moment that we are living in, our convention needs a leader to be involved in every issue and every project in order to establish a solid foundation that will allow the convention to become strong with a great future," said Borrego, a past president of the Convencion.

"I ask for your prayers. I have been part in Baptist life for almost 35 years, and I have always believed that if we are elected to do a certain duty, we need to give all we have because we are doing it for the Lord."

Borrego is pastor of Iglesia Bautista Emanuel in Wichita Falls.
