First Baptist Church, Montgomery, on mission

A team of men from First Baptist Church, Montgomery, traveled to the Mississippi Delta region to do construction work for Pleasant Grove Baptist Church, a church they have partnered with over the past several years.

Led by Allen Luckie, the team of about 12 men spent Oct. 6–9 pouring a 30 by 40 slab of concrete that will serve as the foundation of a new sanctuary for Pleasant Grove Baptist. A church from Arkansas will be building on top of the foundation.

“The biggest thing I took from this trip is just how important it is to pray about things while you are doing it and before you’re doing it to make sure you are walking in God’s will,” Luckie said. “To the equipment, people, money and resources that we needed, everything we asked for God gave more than we needed.”
