Central Union Ordination Council

 

Kudos to Chris Hamilton, Student Ministries Regional Ministry Associate [Northeast]. Pastor Brad Lacey moderated the Ordination Council with the delegates from Central Union Association gathering in person and through Zoom to ask questions of Chris about his call and theology. Chris did an outstanding job fielding the questions and the delegates unanimously supported FBC, Lansdale, in ordaining Chris. Congratulations brother!

Operation Christmas Child 2020

 

It's that time of the year. Like many churches across the region, Greenville FBC has prepared shoeboxes ready for Operation Christmas Child. There is no greater feeling than filling a box for a child who probably will not receive anything for Christmas. But the greatest feeling is spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ.

The Blessing Box

 

Greenville First Baptist Church recently partnered with the Reynolds Class of '76 in a great mission. The Blessing Box was painted, mounted, and filled with food for needy folk in the community. With contributions made by members of the church and neighborhood, nonperishable food is made available to anyone in need. Great idea Pastor Jeff Landfried! Awesome way to connect with your community.
