Faith and Fellowship: Baton Rouge's Upcoming Religious Events

Baton Rouge is buzzing with religious events this December. The Berean Seventh-day Adventist Church is kicking things off with their annual Religious Liberty Day on December 6th. This gathering is all about championing religious freedom, human rights, and community involvement. The church's Public Affairs and Religious Liberty department will be in the spotlight, discussing how these values are more important than ever. The Rev. T. Ron Weegar will be the guest speaker, tackling the intriguing topic of the "Mark of the Beast" and its link to the number 666. This subject is especially relevant today, given the ongoing debates about national policies and their effects on religious freedom. After the talk, everyone is invited to stick around for a fellowship meal. It's a great chance to connect with others and enjoy some good food. Over at Freeman Baptist Church, there's a special fifth Sunday fellowship service happening this weekend. The service starts at 8:30 a. m. , and the guest pastor will be the Rev. Allen Rowe, who serves at both Rock Zion and Greater Faith Baptist churches. It's a wonderful opportunity to hear from a respected leader in the community. Music lovers won't want to miss the Southern and Country Gospel Fest on December 5th at Good News Fellowship Church. The Rev. Mike Vaughn will lead the event, with doors opening at 5:30 p. m. and the music starting at 6:30 p. m. The lineup includes Vaughn himself, followed by Chronicle with Tim and Missy Kinchen at 7:30 p. m. While the concert is free, there will be a love offering and a concession stand serving up delicious desserts.
