Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The Chicago, Kansas and Nebraska Railway originally Railroad was formed in 1885 with Marcus Low , a former attorney for the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad , as its president. The CRI&P advanced the CK&N about twenty five million dollars to begin construction in exchange for nearly all of the CK&N s stock. Essentially, this made the CRI&P the owner of the CK&N from the very beginning. The CK&N had put down about 1388 miles of track by 1888, mostly in Kansas and Missouri , but in 1889 it failed to make its interest payment to the CRI&P. The CRI&P started foreclosure proceedings on the CK&N, eventually fully taking over by June 17, 1891.

Headquartered in Topeka, Kansas , the convention is made up of 13 Baptist associations and more than 400 churches as of 2010. Doctrinal Beliefs The KansasNebraska Convention of Southern Baptist believes that the Bible is the verbally inspired Word of God and is sufficient as the only infallible rule of faith and practice. The convention is also supportive of The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 which was adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention. Cooperative Program The KansasNebraska Convention of Southern Baptist participates in the Cooperative Program CP . CP is described as a tool used by God to empower the witness of Baptists in Kansas and Nebraska. Every Southern Baptist Church in these two states is challenged to give 10 of all her tithes and offerings to the Cooperative Program. These funds are then pooled with other church gifts from Kansas and Nebraska. State convention staff collect the funds and distribute some for missions work in Kansas and Nebraska while the rest is forwarded on to the Southern Baptist Convention SBC . The SBC then uses gifts collected from all SBC state conventions to fund missions in the United States as well as send missionaries around the world. The Cooperative Program provides the opportunity for even the smallest church to be a part of fulfilling the great commission.
