Agnew Road Baptist Church will host the conference in 2025.)
Ladies “Bible & Breakfast”
Our ladies gather every couple of months to enjoy a Bible study with breakfast. Dates for 2024 are February 3rd, April 6th, June 1st, August 3rd, and November 2nd. Come enjoy breakfast and sweet fellowship while learning from the Word of God!

Your child will enjoy Rally Time, Bible Time, Game Time, Costume/Character nights, our annual March Pine Car Derby, using their points in the Master Club “store” as they earn awards to display on their Master Club vests while learning how to serve the Lord in the church!

Registration is available on the home page (look for the brightly colored Master Club logo).
