About this church
Blackburn Road Baptist Church in Athens, Alabama, holds its Sunday morning worship service at 10:00 a.m. at 17836 Blackburn Road, near the intersection with New Cut Road and in front of the water tower. The style is a blend of traditional and contemporary worship, and the message focuses on biblical truth with application to daily life. Services are held in person and streamed on Facebook Live. Attire is come as you are, from shorts and t-shirts to dress clothes. Visitors can enter through the front porch, the breezeway, or the rear parking lot.
A nursery is available at each service, and a children's class is offered during the 10 a.m. Sunday service. Small groups meet at various times and places through the week and change each semester, and a registration page handles small group and event sign-ups. The church began in 1988 and frames its mission as helping people believe, belong, become, and build. Five suggested ways to get involved are Sunday services, a Growth Track class, small groups, membership, and sharing Jesus with others. The church office is open Monday through Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and closed Friday and Saturday; the number is (256) 233-8502. Confirm times on the website before visiting.
