What a beautiful and powerful Pink Out Sunday at Second!

Yesterday, we came together in praise and worship, celebrated and honored our courageous breast cancer survivors, and received a powerful Word from Pastor Patricia “Pastor Pat” Keyes, Senior Pastor and Founder of Praise Tabernacle Erie, Inc.

We thank God for a spirit-filled worship experience and a beautiful reminder of His faithfulness, strength, and healing power! To God be the glory!

We want to hear from you! Drop your Pink Out Sunday pictures in the comments and share your favorite moment from yesterday’s worship experience!

This Sunday, we’re turning Second Baptist PINK!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re coming together in faith, love, and solidarity to honor survivors, support those currently facing breast cancer, recognize caregivers, and remember those whose lives have been taken by this disease.

Breast cancer has touched so many of our families, friends, and communities. This Sunday is an opportunity to remind one another that no one should have to face the journey alone.

Join us TOMORROW at 11:00 AM for PINK OUT SUNDAY!

WEAR PINK as we worship, celebrate strength and resilience, raise awareness, and stand together in hope.

Whether you’re a survivor, caregiver, supporting a loved one, or simply want to stand with those affected, there’s a place for you at Second!

Leadership is more than a title, it’s a commitment to serve. And, as we continue the work of changing lives and creating impact, we recognize that strong ministry begins with strong, united leadership!

This Saturday, October 24th, we’re bringing together all church and ministry leaders for our Ministry Leaders Retreat. Let’s gather for an opportunity to reconnect, strengthen our commitment to service, and move forward together with renewed purpose and vision.

All church and ministry leaders are encouraged to attend. Your presence and participation matter as we continue building a stronger church and serving our community.

Hey family, this is Pastor Cook. Our city is hurting, and I want to share what’s on my heart as we ask, “Where do we go from here?”

As we pray for the Woodard family and everyone impacted by the tragedy on Perry Street, I believe God is calling us to be present, support those who are hurting, and advocate for justice. It’s time to pause, pray, plan, and proceed together.

Take a few minutes to watch this message. Then visit https://www.sbcimpacterie.com/ -care-impact to share a need through our private needs assessment or let us know how you can serve with our Community Impact Team.

Let’s take the next faithful step together. Changing lives. Creating impact.

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

Our city is hurting. Families are grieving. Emotions are heavy, and many in our community are searching for answers, healing, and a way forward.

In moments like these, we believe the Church has a responsibility to be more than a place of worship. We must be a source of hope, a voice for healing, and a place where our community can come together, find strength, and begin moving forward.

TOMORROW, Sunday, October 18th, Rev. Darrell Cook and the Second Baptist Church family invite the entire Erie community to join us at 9:30 AM for a special gathering of prayer and worship.

Together, we’ll lift up the Woodard family, those impacted by the recent mass shooting, and everyone carrying the weight of these tragedies.

Whether you’ve attended church your entire life, haven’t been in years, or have never stepped inside one, there is a place for you here.

You don’t have to have the right words. You don’t have to have all the answers. Just come as you are.

As we ask, “Where Do We Go From Here?” we recognize that healing will take more than a moment of prayer. It will require compassion, unity, courageous leadership, and a shared commitment to the well-being of our community.

We may not have all the answers, but we believe we have a responsibility to help lead the way forward, together.

Sunday, October 18th

* 8:30 AM | Breakfast at Second Baptist
* 9:30 AM | Community Prayer & Worship
* 11:00 AM | Joint Worship at Morning Star Baptist Church

Please note: There will be no 11:00 AM worship service at Second Baptist this Sunday.
