You're Invited

Join us for One Purpose Weekend at Emmanuel Baptist Church as we gather around our shared mission: to proclaim the name of Jesus. Inspired by the rich biblical heritage of the Puritans, this special weekend will encourage us to deepen our love for Christ, strengthen our faith, and live with a singular purpose for His glory.

Throughout the weekend, we'll enjoy meaningful worship, engaging workshops, and meals together as we grow in fellowship and learn how to faithfully live out the gospel in our homes, workplaces, and community. Whether you've been at Emmanuel for years or you're new to our church family, we invite you to be part of this encouraging and Christ-centered weekend.

September 18–20 — Mark your calendar and join us as we pursue our One Purpose together!
