A message from Pastor Bill Adams:
Pastor Bill Adams
For He that is mighty
hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. Luke 1:49
This truly is my testimony and it can be
yours as well. As Pastor of Smyrna Baptist Church I look
forward to those things God has for us as a people. We have
one purpose in this life and that is to please our God (Rev.
4:11). Jesus said, "And
he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone;
for I do always those things that please him." John 8:29.
We give you a warm invitation to join with
us in pleasing the Father. You will find us a warm, active and
enthusiastic church.
"We are
journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give
it you: come thou with us , and we will do thee good."
Num 10:29
God Bless,
Pastor Bill Adams
