We had a great Valentine Celebration earlier this year!  A delicious meal was served. The PBC Wee Kids Choir sang. Debbi Matthews sang "Valentine."  Patti Williams emceed the "Newlywed Game" in which Jade and Chad Price, Kim and Steve Battles, Lori and Kevin Turner, and Becky and J. D. Longshore participated.  Congratulations to Jade and Chad Price who were winners of the Newlywed Game and received a "new car" (Matchbox) and a gift card to a nice restaurant for a night out on the town.  Jan Colley also was the "Valentine Fairy" and had some very funny thoughts to share.  Next year's event will be on Saturday, February 12, at 6:00 p.m.  We hope that you can join us!

 

Everyone is invited to come on Sunday night, March 28, at 6:00 p.m., as the children ages three through sixth grade will present Easter music.  The Wee Kids Choir (ages three through six) is under the direction of Jennifer Price.  Kathy Humber leads the Children's Choir (ages seven through twelve).  Don't miss the blessing of hearing and watching our little ones as they proclaim the glory of our Savior in song!

 

All kids and their parents are invited to an Easter Party at the home of Lori and Kevin Turner on Saturday, April 3, 2010, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Each child should bring six plastic candy-filled Easter eggs to hunt. Everyone is asked to sign-up to donate needed items on the list on the bulletin board in the church foyer. New to PBC?

The Philadelphia Baptist Church Sanctuary Choir will present "In the Presence of Jehovah," an Easter cantata by Russell Mauldin, in two performances.  The first is on Saturday, April 3, at 6:00 p.m.  The second performance will be during morning worship on Easter Sunday, April 4, 2010.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
JUNE 21-25, 2010
Philadelphia Baptist Church always has an outstanding Vacation Bible School, with evening meeting times of 6:00 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. A light supper is served. In addition to Bible classes, there's time for recreation, arts and crafts, and music.  VBS is open to all children from age three through sixth grade (just completed).  The preschool children of the VBS may also attend.  Jan Colley is the director of our VBS.  For more information and to register, click here. 

 

Each year, PBC celebrates its anniversary with a special worship service with guest singers and "dinner on the ground."  After lunch, we reconvene for a time of singing.  There is no Sunday School that Sunday.  Worship service begins at 10:30 a.m. and everything concludes around 3:00 p.m.  The dinner is covered dish and PBC has a lot of wonderful cooks!  So if you are a member, a former member, a member who has moved away, someone who has visited, someone who is looking for a church home...we extend a cordial invitation for you to join us as we celebrate our HOMECOMING!

 

Stay tuned for details on this year's festival date and activities. Last year, we had "Trunk or Treat," inflatables, a cake walk, refreshments, and more! Open to all children and families! 

 

The Annual Old-Fashioned Supper is held each year on the Sunday evening before Thanksgiving at 6:00 p.m. Everyone is invited to dress in old-timey clothing and bring a covered dish or two or three.  We always have a very good time and delightful entertainment. One year, we had a bluegrass band play. The next year, we had a womanless beauty pageant. You never know what you'll find at this annual event!
