Edgefield Baptist Church         family....friends....community


 

Steve Saunders, senior pastor

 

Welcome to the website of historic Edgefield Baptist Church!  We thank you for visiting and we invite you to spend a few moments exploring the various pages of this site and reading about our church, our ministries, our people, our history, our community, and our Savior.  We also invite you to come experience our church and community, anytime that we gather together.

We gather together for Worship each Sunday morning at 10 am.  Our full regular weekly schedule can be viewed by clicking here.  Times for other special activities and events can be found elsewhere on this site.

You can find us in the heart of Historic Edgefield and East Nashville at 700 Russell Street, on the corner of South Seventh and Russell Streets.  We are just blocks from Shelby Park, Five Points, Downtown, Titans LP Field, and Interstate 24.  We are three blocks off of Shelby Avenue, and one block off of Woodland Street, just across from Warner Elementary School and East Park.  Click here for a Google map.

We hope to see you soon!

 

 


The Greening of the Church...

Centuries old carols signal the beginning of the Christmas season. Traditional decorations – wreathes, holly, evergreens, poinsettias, candles – add to the festive mood in our homes and in our churches. They also tell a story. The Greening of the Church is a celebration – people singing, talking, worshipping, helping – telling the story of all stories that has endured for more that 2000 years. Join us for the traditional beginning of the Christmas season at Edgefield, The Greening of the Church, Sunday evening, November 30th at 6 pm. A reception will follow.

 


A Taste of Edgefield Baptist Church...

Our long anticipated cookbook is almost ready...just in time for the Christmas season!  More than 200 great recipes have been compiled from the Edgefield church family and community.  The cover price is $12.00 and orders are now being accepted.  To download an order form, click here.  If you are requesting mail delivery, an additional $3.00 per book is required for postage and handling.  The proceeds from the sales of this cookbook will be directed to the church's Centennial Campaign...for the next 100 years.  The purpose of this campaign is to raise funds for enhancements and improvements to our 100+ year old church building as we help prepare it for another 100 years of service to the church and community. 

 


         

EBC Gulf Coast Mission Trip to Waveland, MS...October 9th-12th

Well, we left with a few less than we hoped and rather unskilled, but God proved Himself faithful, as always.  We had plenty of work to do because there is still so much work to do in the Gulf Coast area.  The continued devastation is sad, but I can tell you it was a joy to my heart to see our boys working so hard on behalf of complete strangers.  We each had the joy of being ministers in the name of Jesus Christ to those in need, each using gifts and talents that God has blessed us with.  It may have been pouring concrete to secure a house foundation, or cleaning up the campground for future groups, or the act of keeping company through simple conversation.  Big or small, we know God blesses and God rewards.  We had the joy to minister; I pray you had the joy of being senders.  None of this would have been possible without the support of our EBC family.  The financial gifts and contributions funded the trip.  Your prayers fueled us with patience and strength.  No matter the role of participation, God has been glorified in you.  Our part in the Gulf Coast may have been relatively small, but effort and work done in Jesus’ name is always worthwhile.
