Samson’s Friendship Church marks 100 years

Friendship Baptist Church, Samson, celebrated 100 years of ministry Sept. 25.

More than 100 people attended the service that included special music by a gospel quartet and congregational singing. They also enjoyed a slide show illustrating how the Sardis Baptist Association church has grown throughout the years.

A representative from the Alabama Baptist Historical Commission was on hand to present a plaque honoring the church’s service.  

Pastor Bobbie Hataway said he hopes Friendship Baptist continues to grow and gets to rejoice in celebrating another 100 years.
