DALLAS, July 20,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Following yesterday's
devastating four-alarm fire at First Baptist Dallas' historic
sanctuary, the church will gather for Sunday worship in the main
arena at the Dallas Convention
Center tomorrow, July 21, 2024.
Rather than the usual three services held onsite at First
Baptist Dallas – including a band-led worship service that was
still being conducted in the historic sanctuary – there will be one
joint service at 11 a.m. CDT. The
service will be livestreamed at icampus.firstdallas.org.
"We continue to praise God for His hand of protection on our
church, and are grateful no one was injured," said Senior Pastor
Dr. Robert Jeffress. "We are also
thankful for the first responders who helped contain the fire to
our historic sanctuary."
Executive Pastor Dr. Ben Lovvorn
added, "We know that God is in control, and that even in difficult
times, He's sovereign over all things."
The Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center is located in
downtown Dallas at 650 S. Griffin
St., Dallas, TX 75202, with ample
free parking available in the facility's underground garage.
Further information about parking and other local transportation
options is located on the convention center website here.
Church leadership invites Dallas area residents to join them for
in-person worship tomorrow, and others from around the nation to
join via livestream as they praise God for his hand of
protection.
Note: Families will worship together for this special service,
as childcare will not be available for children of any age.
