Weogufka Second Baptist celebrates 100 years

CENTRAL ASSOCIATION

On Oct. 13, Weogufka Second Baptist Church celebrated its centennial anniversary. 

Pastor Brandon Baird brought the message and an overview of the church’s history. Brandon Baird, Brynli Mitchell, Zeb Baird and Zander Baird shared special music during the service and The Darnell Family brought a pre-service concert.

David Crowe, director of missions for Central Baptist Association, attended the celebration and Ralph Foster presented a certificate from the Alabama Baptist Historical Commission. 

The old pulpit from the 1940s and the old Lord’s Supper table were used for the service. 

“My takeaway for the day was from our pastor’s sermon: ‘God is always faithful and we must be faithful to Him.’ It was a wonderful day,” Linda Green said. 

Former pastor Danny Bynum was recognized and presented with a gift, as was the oldest deacon, Bain Culver. 

The women of the church sponsored the catered lunch that followed the service.
