DISCOVER EBC

There is no dress code at Emory Baptist and people wear many different kinds of clothes. On Sundays, you will see suits and ties, dresses and skirts, as well as polo shirts, jeans, and t-shirts.

Wednesdays are more casual. Most people wear what they wore to work or school that day. 

The bottom line: worship is about the heart. Dress however you feel most comfortable when we gather for worship.

The pastor usually preaches out of the New King James Version (NKJV) of the Bible. However, words to the songs we sing and the Bible verses are projected onto the screens at the front of the room. Bulletins, or programs of the service schedule, are provided at Sunday morning services.

Wednesday meal is served in the fellowship hall. Wednesday worship for adults meets in the fellowship hall. Children in Action meets upstairs in the children's building. Youth Bible Study meets in Memorial Hall in the youth room. Bible Skills, Drills, & Thrills meet in the Education Building. Preschool care is provided downstairs in the children's building.

If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us.
