Churches around town have been advertising their vacation Bible schools this summer, but Apalache Baptist Church had a different target audience in mind.

For over 16 years, the church has been holding a week-long vacation Bible school for the senior adults, also known as “the Golden Hearts,” during the first week in August.

Each Wednesday night this summer, the kids at Abner Creek Baptist Church have been learning about different mission opportunities – from opportunities to serve in Russia and then all the way back home to participate in Good News Clubs.

Greer Community Ministries’ entry signs received a fresh design recently with the help of a Walmart Community Grant.

Walmart provided a $2,246 to update the signage, add a new logo to the ministry’s trailer and purchase stencils to designate parking spaces for the bus and van.

For the second time in less than a year, The Church at Greer Station (TCGS) is on the move.

Having nearly tripled its membership, the church, which had previously gathered at Greer Community Ministries and Grace Hall, will begin meeting at The Spinning Jenny, 107 Cannon St., on Aug. 2.

For more than 100 years, New Hope Baptist Church has been meeting at the same location at 561 Gilliam Road.  

But now the historical church is getting ready to pick up its roots and move to a more central location in Greer, 1290 Valentine Lane – right behind D&D Motors.
