This Week's Featured Church:

Allenhurst Presbyterian Church, Allenhurst, GA

 Allenhurst PC will celebrate its 50th birthday this year! It started when a few people wanted to bring Presbyterian worship to Allenhurst, a small lumber town. Most of its residents worshiped at Walthourville PC or Flemington PC. In fact, Flemington PC played a huge role in the establishment of this church. In the early 1900s, the church began as a regular Sunday School on Sunday evenings, with occasional worship. The Depression stalled the church’s development, and closed the lumber mill. But in 1943, Flemington PC began plans to start a mission and Sunday School there, which eventually grew into Allenhurst PC. Congregants of APC served regularly on Flemington’s session.  In 1960, when the church was chartered, ninety members of Flemington transferred there to become the first congregation of Allenhurst Presbyterian Church. When it came time to hire a full time pastor in 1988, the pastor of First PC in Hinesville helped guide the church in their search.

Today, Allenhurst PC is an active, dedicated congregation, which is still thankful for the loving nurture all those years ago of Flemington PC and First PC Hinesville. In the last several years they have built a new fellowship hall, and they are currently being served by their interim pastor, the Reverend Doug Holden. If you would like to know more about Allenhurst PC, please call them at 912-369-8999 or come worship with them! They would love to have you!

COMMUNICATION IS THE MOST VITAL ROLE!

Over the last few months, we have been publishing a series of articles on church communications.  Each church has the power to capture the interest of visitors, create participation in members, and grow the church, both within the walls and in the community.  If you aren't using communication properly, your church is missing out on a lot.  Click the link below to read and download the articles.

READ THE LATEST ARTICLE: "COMMUNICATIONS WRAP UP: THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX"  OR VISIT THE COMMUNICATIONS SERIES HOME TO SEE ALL THE ARTICLES.

Don't miss out on the next installation, as well as important information and updates from the presbytery.  SUBSCRIBE TO THE E-NEWSLETTER HERE.
