Antioch Baptist Church joyfully extends an invitation to you and your loved ones to join us for a Friends and Family Day on Sunday, March 15. The theme is “Stronger Together,” inspired by Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, which reminds us that “Two are better than one … for if they fall, one will lift up the other.” We believe this truth speaks powerfully to the blessing of fellowship, unity and shared faith.
The guest speaker for the day will be our own pastor, the Rev. Verton L. Dean Sr. We look forward to a spirit-filled message that will encourage, uplift and strengthen us as we continue walking together in Christian love.
Following the morning service, a dinner will be served, and everyone is welcome to stay for fellowship and enjoy a time of connection with friends old and new.
Your presence would truly make this celebration complete. We hope you will join us as we worship, give thanks and rejoice in the goodness of God — because we are, indeed, stronger together.
