On Sunday afternoon, UPC joined Corinth Missionary Baptist Church for worship and fellowship. We are so blessed to have a partnership with Corinth. Two years ago, both congregations came together to join as sister churches, to deepen their commitment to mulit-culturalism and interracial fellowship. Unfortunately in our nation, Sunday morning continues to be the most segregated hour of the week. We are called to be disciples together - to mirror God's diversity and God's justice for everyone.
The service was held at Corinth Missionary Baptist Church, and the hospitality and friendship was so meaningful. Pastor San gave the message, and the choirs from both churches sang pieces of music that were beautiful and energetic. Each congregation blessed the other, and we celebrated communion together.
After the service, we joined together for a time of refreshments. We were thankful to spend some time together and eat some delicious desserts!
Austin Agape hopes to join students and young adults at Corinth to get to know one another in the Fall. We would like to brainstorm some ways to work together and make deep relationships among both congregations. Thank you Corinth for such a meaningful time of worship and fellowship!
