Ministry Centers RE OPEN August 4th!


July has been a month of sprucing up on a lot of things at the Baptist Centers. The yards have been worked on, walls are being painted, food is being restocked, clothes are being straightened.


In another way, procedures and policies have been spruced up too. Volunteers have been re-trained on working with people in poverty and new procedures have been put in place to assure that every guest that comes to the centers are treated with respect, dignity and God’s love. We are excited that when we re-open on Monday, August 4th for ministry that folks who come through the doors of our centers will experience more than just the services that we offer. They will experience God’s love in a way that can help them rethink their lives. Your prayers are certainly coveted as this new phase of ministry starts at the centers.



There will be Open Houses on Sunday, August 10th from 3-5pm at each center. Every church member in Montgomery Baptist Association is invited to come through, take a tour of the center and get acquainted with our volunteers and new staff. Refreshments will be served.

Find your assigned center below and come and visit! We look forward to seeing you there.
