Hey Kids (and Parents)!
Are you ready for a Night Out? Join us for a fantastic evening of Fall Fun at our Kids Night Out on Friday, October 4th from 6:30 to 9:30 PM! Kids will enjoy pizza, games, fun crafts, and even get involved in a service project.
Got pajamas? Feel free to wear them! But don’t forget good shoes because we’ll be playing outside and want everyone to be ready for some action-packed games.
Parents, be sure to register and pay online at secondb.org by Thursday, October 3rd. This ensures we can maintain proper safety and supervision for all the kids. No late or walk-in registrations will be accepted, and we won't be taking payments at the door.
We’ve adjusted our pricing, so check the registration page for the latest info. Signing up ahead of time makes everything run smoother and guarantees we can plan properly for your kids. Last-minute surprises make it tough to keep things safe and fun for everyone, so thank you for helping us by registering early!
Thanks for your cooperation—we’re looking forward to an awesome night with your kiddos!

New Sunday Classes This Fall!
This fall, Second Baptist is excited to offer two new classes designed to help you grow spiritually and connect with our community.
Pastor’s Class
New to our church or looking for a Sunday School class? Pastor Charlie leads the class, which is perfect for new members and those not currently in a class. It offers a refresher on the basics of the Christian faith—Christianity 101—and provides a welcoming environment to help you get connected. The class starts on September 8th and meets Sundays at 9:30 AM. We’d love for you to join us!
Invitation to Meditation
Starting September 15th, this six-week series will explore the spiritual riches of meditation, helping you connect with the Source and discover the joy of meditating together in community. Join us on Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM for a peaceful and enriching experience.
For more details on the meditation class, contact Mark Cox at: 806-781-7770.
