About this church
Maranatha Baptist Church of Hardee County meets in Wauchula, Florida, and describes itself as an independent Baptist church, unaffiliated with any convention or denomination. Sunday begins with Sunday School at 10 a.m., followed by morning worship at 11 a.m. and an afternoon service at 1 p.m. A midweek prayer meeting takes place Wednesday at 7 p.m. Morning worship pairs congregational music with a Bible message, and the church uses the King James Version in its ministry. Visitors are told to wear whatever is comfortable, and guests are not expected to give in the offering.
Families will find a nursery and toddler care for ages birth through five, plus a children's class for grades one through six. The kids program combines singing, games, and Bible teaching. A ladies ministry focuses on spiritual growth and friendships among women, and a family ministry organizes fellowship times for families in the congregation. The church's website also offers a sign-up for transportation to services, which may help those without a ride. The building is at 204 N 9th Ave, and the church can be reached at 863-832-7829 with questions before a first visit. Recent sermons are posted on the church's YouTube channel. Confirm service times on the website before visiting, since schedules can change.
