Join us this Sunday IN-PERSON @ 10:00

Pre-registration is not required.

BIG+ is our new exciting kid's ministry for Infants - Grade 8. It all begins in the Multi-Media Room and Nursery at 10 AM sharp. Your kids will have a blast.
Easter Offering

UPDATE: As of April 10th, $8,060 has been given through our Easter Offering. Our goal by the end of April is $10, 000. Your continued generosity is greatly appreciated.

It has been one full year of coming into your home by way of online sources such as Facebook Live and YouTube. Over this past year we have expanded our online ministry from recorded services to real time livestream. We have also extended our reach by broadcasting on JoyFm each week at 9 AM. Each week several hundred people beyond our church walls are reached through online ministry.

Through your faithful giving we have purchased a powerful iMac computer, live-streaming software and a new lighting system. But now we need to upgrade our audio and video equipment by purchasing a new digital sound board and the first of several new PTZ remote control cameras. We are only able to purchase these extra-budget upgrades as funds are given through special offerings. So it is to these designated purposes that we are committing the Easter offering this year. The sound board will cost approximately $6,000 installed and one camera will cost approximately $4,000 installed. It is our hope that God will provide one or more donors who will be able to give toward the entire purchase of one of these this Easter season. Please designate “Easter Offering” in your online giving or on your envelope. May God bless you for your extravagant gift.
We have had issues with the church roof leaking over the past couple of years. Repairs are required to prevent further problems. The Leadership and Administration Team (LAT) is calling a short church family meeting to be held following our morning service on Sunday, April 25th to approve $11, 000 to be used from our savings account to cover the costs of the repairs. More information will be provided at the meeting. The work will be done early May.
For the month of April the Pond Chapter of Atlantic Baptist Women is taking on a home mission project to help the Student Hunger Program at Leo Hayes. Our ladies are collecting pasta sauce, pasta, canned sandwich meat, cereal/oatmeal and snacks. Donations can be given to Carol Murdock or any of our WMS ladies.
