Athens Church

Our annual students vs. parents kickball game was this past Wednesday! We’re thankful to spend fun summer nights together!! 📷: @dorrbella ✨

On Night 4 of VBX we discovered that the key to The Good Life is Jesus! And we finally captured that pesky thief. Here’s to a wonderful week of VBX…now on to Friday Fun Night!

We had no CLUE just how fun Night 3 of VBX would be! Only one more night to crack this case! 🥸💼

We’re On the Case 🔍 to find The Good Life this week at VBX! Nights 1 + 2 have been a blast-we can’t wait to see what the rest of this week has in store!

We are still rejoicing over all that the Lord is doing in the lives of people at Athens! This past Sunday, we had the joy of celebrating multiple baptisms. It’s powerful reminder of God’s grace, redemption, and the new life found in Him. He is still changing lives. And we’re expectant for all that’s to come.

We hope you’ll join us tonight as we prepare our hearts for Easter Sunday. And don’t forget we have two service times for Sunday morning to celebrate the risen King! Good Friday Service: 6pm Easter Sunday: 8:45am or 10:15am

Spring is here and our Athens Grounds team is hard at work making our property beautiful and inviting! 🌸 Love working outside? We’d love to have you join the team!

Due to inclement weather, we will not be meeting for service on Sunday, January 5th. Instead of attending our in-person service or watching our livestream, we’re going to suggest something different. Tomorrow morning, we challenge you to prioritize your spiritual nourishment by watching the two videos in the link in our bio. These BibleProject videos are wonderful for adults or kids and creatively explain the book of the Bible that we will be in for many months (they are 8-9 minutes each). You can watch them on your phone, laptop, or smart TV. Stay safe and we’ll see you next week!

Merry Christmas, Athens family!

Merry Christmas Eve! We hope you’ll join us at 4 PM to celebrate the coming of our King!

We had the sweetest morning together at our Women’s Ornament Exchange!🎄 “Our wreaths and ribbons and colored lights, our giving of gifts, our parties with friends— these have never been ends in themselves.
