Ryan Baptist Church has been in existence for 78 years. We are active in the Shelby Baptist Association. Most who attend have been in the church for many years, but don't let that scare you. The members of Ryan Baptist are some of the most loving people you will ever meet. I have served in churches in Georgia, Florida and Alabama. I have never been a part of a church where those who attend care so much about one another. When one hurts, we all hurt. When one rejoices, we all rejoice,
One thing you will notice when you visit for the first time is that we are a small congregation. As Pastor, I teach the only Adult Sunday School Class. I lead the music during the worship service and I preach. Sometime I feel like the "Swiss Army Knife" of Pastors.
We have visitors often. You may feel that since we are a small congregation that you will be put on the spot. But, I assure you, if you visit us (AND WE WANT YOU TO) you will feel a warm welcome. You will feel at home. I have been in church ministry for over 30 years, and have been Pastor of Ryan Baptist for a year. The people of Ryan Baptist have Open Minds and Open Hearts. My family and I felt right at home on our first Sunday.
So, PLEASE, Join Us For Worship. Bring a friend if you don't want to come alone on your first Sunday. You will be doubly blessed if you show up on a Sunday when we have a meal after the worship service...and we seem to find every excuse to do that as much as possible. And don't be surprised if you are given a "to go" bag full of muffins and jams.
If you have any questions about any topic, go to our comment page and ask any question you may have.
Also, visit this blog page often. I may not write something every week, but I promise that I will write as often as I can.
God Bless,
Reece
