LaMalfa to attend 50th anniversary celebration


RED BLUFF - The First Southern Baptist Church is celebrating its 50th anniversary at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 10, at the church's auditorium on 585 Kimball Road.
State Assemblyman Doug LaMalfa will present a certificate the
congregation commemorating their 50th anniversary.
The event will be directed by Pastor Tom Turner, and a potluck will be
held at 12:30 p.m. before the services. The celebration will include
music, recognitions, displays, photos, speakers, and a slide show
commemorating people and events through the years. Lyle Paul, who is
the director of missions in the Tehama-Butte Association, will be among
the speakers at the event.
The congregation held its first meeting on April 1, 1956, at Women’s
Clubhouse. They later met at a dwelling on South Jackson Street.
The church’s goals for the future include building a new church and
reaching out to more young people.
The public has been invited to help the First Southern Baptist Church
celebrate its 50th anniversary.
