Pastor’s Welcome Letter
I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Second Baptist Church extends a heartfelt welcome to you.
Scripture teaches us that the Church is the body of Christ made up of many members. Each member has their own role and responsibility as he or she works toward the edification and well-being of the entire body. Our Church Website serves as an indicator of our Church and ministries and gives a blueprint sketch of who we are and what we are about.
In my estimation, the Church has two primary functions. The first is to honor God, and the second is to serve as an agent to lead others into the love of God through Jesus Christ. It is our hope and prayer that the Church Website will help you better understand our purpose for existence, our love and support for each other, our community service and involvement, and each member’s place and purpose in this assembly of God.
Psalm 127:1 reads, “Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it”. Let this Church Website not be mere pictures and words viewed on the internet, but rather pictures and words that come to life in our efforts of Kingdom building. Let it be a vessel through which our members and community come together to worship God and grow in our understanding of His word. Let His story be our story.
My prayer continues to be that God’s richest blessings will individually and collectively be evidenced in this body of baptized believers.
In His Love,
Rev. William T. Edmonson, Sr., Interim Pastor
