One Last Service in This Building… ❤️

This Sunday at 11:00 AM, we invite you to join us for our final worship service at:

📍 101 Hospital Rd.
Sardis, MS

Sermon:
Building a Life That Lasts

Knowledge. Understanding. Wisdom.

This is not the end of the ministry—it’s simply the end of this chapter.

For years, God has met us in this building. Lives have been changed, hearts have been healed, families have been restored, and countless prayers have been answered within these walls. We are deeply grateful for every person who has walked through these doors and every memory we’ve shared together.

While this will be our last service at 101 Hospital Road, Encounter Worship Center is not closing. God is leading us into a new season of ministry, and we are excited to share what He has in store.

📢 More details about what’s next will be coming this fall.

Come worship with us one more time in this place as we celebrate God’s faithfulness, reflect on His goodness, and look forward with expectation to the future.

“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” — Psalm 127:1

The building may change, but the mission remains the same. We can’t wait to see what God does next. ❤️
