Exalting Jesus Christ Through His Word

Since 1873

We extend a sincere and warm welcome to anyone wishing to attend our services. We are located in beautiful Southeastern Ohio right along the Ohio River. The preaching of God's word is the centerpiece of our worship services. We exalt the Person and the Work of Jesus Christ as we faithfully preach and adhere to the Holy Scriptures. In a day when truth is said to be "relative," in a day of confusion and compromise, we must take a strong and uncompromising stand on the Bible.

Our Ministries

Nursery

If you are visiting our church with infants or toddlers, then you will be pleased to be welcomed with a smile (and maybe a fist bump) by one of our friendly greaters. These teams are instructed to give you a little tour of our newly updated nursery and facilities. We are working hard to prepare a safe and clean facility for you and your little ones.

Sunday School

Sunday school is for the whole family! We currently offer three classes: (1) A beginners class for ages 5-8, (2) juniors 9-13, and (3) adults. Each class covers the same passage from the Bible. This way families are "on the same page" and can discuss the lesson together at home. Follow these simple steps to enroll in Sunday school.


  1. Contact Pastor John by email to enroll yourself or your family in a class. antiquitybaptistchurch@gmail.com

  2. Adults will receive a study guide from Union Gospel Press.

  3. Sunday morning begins with an assemmbly for all ages in the auditorium at 9:30 AM.


Our desire is to give busy Dads and Moms a full hour of Bible instruction while their children receive an age appropriate lesson in a seperate classroom.

Worship Services

We are currently holding two "in person" services on Sundays and one "in person" midweek service on Wednesdays. You do not have to worry about what to wear when you come to one of our services. You will see some wearing jeans and a nice shirt and others in business casual wear. We still love our old hymn books and lively congregational singing. (We have been praying for a piano player.) All of our services include a practical Bible message (KJV). The Sunday morning message will be topical and aimed right at the heart. On Sunday evenings we dig deeper with an expository Bible message from Ephesians and our midweek Bible study is currently on the prophecies of Daniel.


Morning Worship: 10:45 AM

Evening Worship: 6:00 PM

Midweek Prayer/Bible Study: Wednesday 7:00 PM

Tract Distribution

We provide several opportunities throughout the year to pass out Christian literature that we call "gospel tracts." We use gospel tracts because God uses them. Below are just a few events that we take advantage of each year. You can learn more on our pastor's blog.

  3. Car Shows

  4. Operation Tract Saturation

  1. The Mooderrys to Brazil

  2. The Emplaeos to the Philippines
