History of Elam Egypt Baptist Church
Elim Baptist Church was constituted in the summer of 1870, in front of and to the left of the residence of C.F. Foy, in a grove of young oaks, about two miles north of Egypt. A man of great influence and social leader in the community brought about a split in the church at Oliver (Little Ogeechee Baptist) over the use of an organ in their song services. Dr. A. B. Lanier organized Elim Baptist Church because of this issue. He and others who favored the use of an instrument left the Little Ogeechee Baptist Church and founded Elim Baptist Church. [more]

G3, Grow in Christ (Prayer), Justin Goins, Matthew 6:5-8
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

It’s Amost Shoebox Season!
It’s almost time to pack shoeboxes! Our church participates every year in packing shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. Last year, our church and individual members packed 300 boxes! By packing a shoebox, you are packing an opportunity for a child to hear the Gospel, which many times leads to families coming to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Shoeboxes will be available soon! Begin now to decide how many Gospel opportunities you will pack this year. Shipping is still $10.00/box. See Brenda Barrow, Tina Caine, or Nancy Holt with questions.
