LABC Sunday Worship – August 24, 2025
Celebrating Our American Baptist History and Heritage
A great day awaits as we worship together this morning at 10:00. Joining us today will be Pastor Naw San KD and members of the San Francisco Kachin Baptist Church. There will be music from both congregations as well as a word from both Pastor Naw San and Pastor Jim. The central scripture will be Jeremiah 29:1-7 in which the prophet instructs the exiles in Babylon to seek the peace of the city they are in and to pray to the LORD on its behalf. SFKBC invites all to stay for after worship for a lunch they are preparing. LABC and SFKBC have been serving together for seventeen years!
