George Perkins
Pastor

 

 

 

Located way up in the most northern part of New England, God has called Brother George Perkins to pastor the Free Baptist Church.  From what I understand the church got it's name because during a time when churches were "renting" pews.   The believers here had "free" pews for any who would wish to worship among them.   So much like salvation, free to all who will come to the Savor.

This was my first time here and this far north in New England for a meeting.  The meeting started with a young peoples time of fellowship.  Meeting in a local school gym, there were games and competition events.

After this time of fun and recreation we met back at the church to continue our time around the Word of God.  After a lively Sword Drill  I preached.  The Lord had control of the group as they gave excellent attention and several indicated their need for salvation and assurance.  Others saw the need to live a life to please the Lord.  Of course after this we had PIZZA!!  and plenty of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The ministry here has a long history dating back to the late 1800's.  The present building was erected or moved to it's present location in the early 1900's

The need for the Gospel today is just as great as ever here in the New England States.

I enjoyed my time here meeting folks for the first time. But in just a very short while I felt at home among the redeemed of the Lord.  On Sunday evening before the service, we had a Harvest Supper with great food and fellowship.  Then On Monday night after the service -- as good Baptist do -- we had an other time of  fellowship of Ice Cream, Pie and assorted desserts.  The Lord filled us both spiritually and physically.

Good Music Sung to the Glory of God always is a Blessing
