Announcements
We are now headed to Pentecost, which on this year will be observed May 24. Pentecost marks the arrival of the Holy Spirit as recorded in Acts 2. It is also the beginning of the Church.
Our mission is to know God and make Him known to all people.

He retired from Bethlehem Baptist Church and from the active pastorate on May 4, 2025, after serving 17 years at Bethlehem Baptist. Steve and Pat are members of Louisburg Baptist Church.
