Local Church Doubles Attendance Without Seating a Single Person

Watkinsville First Baptist Church changes the way they work with a little video and a lot of faith.

Now more than ever, people have been turning toward their faith during these uncertain times.

Local churches like the Watkinsville First Baptist Church has you covered when it comes to online service.

Pastor Carlos Sibley said they were quick to respond to the mandatory quarantine in early March. They switched to strictly online services on March 15.

Watkinsville First Baptist Church keeps in touch with the community through their Facebook page, and website Watkinsville.org. They post all of their services at 10:30 a.m. every Sunday.
