Ever wonder why Baptists don't baptize infants, or why Anglicans pray from a fixed liturgy?

🤝Join us on Wednesday evenings after dinner for a friendly, engaging series: Proclaiming Christ: Anglican & Baptist Perspectives in Dialogue. Each week, our Rector and Pastor Marty Simons (Pastor of Farther West Church) dive into historic roots, core theological differences, and shared Gospel ground. From sacraments and church governance to daily prayer, no question is off the table.

🗓️ When: Wednesdays starting today! | Dinner at 6:30 PM | Dialogue & Q&A at 7:00 PM

📍 Where: St Francis Anglican Church, Willow Park. Whether you're a lifelong churchgoer, new to the faith, or just curious about church history, come enjoy a great meal and honest conversation!
