Leading up to Nov. 11 members of Docena Baptist Church in Birmingham Baptist Association, worked on the buildings and grounds in preparation for the church’s centennial celebration.
On Nov. 11 those workers were recognized during the special service.
Pastor Mike Woodham also preached from Acts 2. “We need to expect something from God when we go to church,” he said.
Congregational singing was led by former music director Lisa Metcalfe.
Lonette Berg, from the Alabama Baptist Historical Commission, presented Docena Baptist with a certificate recognizing the anniversary.
The church gave out tote bags with special pens, fans and calendars inside. There also was a photo album put together with old photos from the church.
“It was a great day seeing the church full of old friends,” church member Pat Metcalfe said.
