What a special evening at First Baptist Church of Parkersburg!

Congratulations to Steve Henderson, Seth, and Taris on their baptisms this evening. We are so thankful for the opportunity to witness this important step in their faith journeys.

Pastor Judi had the privilege of performing the baptisms during a private ceremony, and members of our Bible study group were honored to be present as witnesses and supporters.

Please join us in celebrating these amazing men as they publicly profess their faith in Jesus Christ. May God continue to guide, strengthen, and bless each of them in the days ahead.

Amen, and congratulations, Stevie, Seth, and Taris!

🎓 You’re Invited to Celebrate! 🎓

Our First Baptist Church family has had the joy of watching Lars Youngstrom grow up through the years into an incredible young man with a bright future ahead of him. It has also been such a blessing this year to get to know Linde Meekel through the Youngstrom family. What a beautiful young lady she is, and we know God has amazing things ahead for her as well.

The Youngstrom family would like to invite the entire congregation to a Graduation Stop-In honoring Lars and Linde!

📅 Saturday, May 30
⏰ 2:00–5:00 p.m.

Please come celebrate these two amazing graduates, encourage them as they begin their next chapter, and enjoy a wonderful afternoon of fellowship together. We are so proud of both of them and excited to see where life takes them next! 🎓✨

Please let is know if you will be able to stop in, by making a comment. Thank you.
