A Word from the Pastor

Let me personally invite you to join us for fellowship, worship, and Bible study at Smyrna Baptist Church. It's our greatest desire to bless your family. The people of Smyrna Baptist Church love to welcome guests to our church. You will be greeted warmly, and hopefully, will feel right at home.

Greeters will assist you in finding Sunday School classes or seating. We are blessed to have new and accessible facilities for your whole family. We have plenty of seating for our services, including handicap-accessible seating.

Stay around after the service, so we can visit with you in our large foyer, or greet a new friend on our extended covered porch at the front of the sanctuary. You'll find plenty of friends here who enjoy meeting new families.

Thanks for visiting mysmyrna.org. I look forward to greeting you in person.

Your servant in Christ,

Bro. Jason Hartig
