East Killingly Memorial Day Parade
May 27th, 2024
Pastor Bill Pearl led the parade again this year! The Church set up a food stand, and served passersby hamburgers, hotdogs, brownies, snacks, and water. Many people along with their children stopped to eat and some took tracts. We even handed out goodies to people, who were stopped on the road in their cars.
In May 2024, Pastor Bob had set a goal for UBC to donate 50 Cereal Boxes to Friends of Assisi Food Pantry. At the time of donation, we had reached and surpassed that goal! Thankful for all that donated to this great cause.

"The Essential Church" movie screening
July 23rd, 2023
23 members of UBC came to the screening of "The Essential Church" Movie. Popcorn and refreshments were served.
We were honored to have Pastor Wabwire James Muwanguzi at Union Baptist Church to preach the Gospel and share his mission of building a school, housing, chapel, and providing food and clean water to his community in his homeland of Uganda, Africa.
Pastor James's powerful sermon included readings from the Gospel John 11:1-45, where Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead which shows that He can do anything on our behalf. We should not limit our beliefs to think of what only humans can do, but rather trust that God's mighty and divine power is what we should consider. He shared testimony of those that had cancer and were suddenly freed from it without human medical attention, only an act that God is capable of.
Pastor James has been a great friend of Union Baptist for years and we wish him well on his tireless mission. If you would like to support his mission to spread world-wide Christianity and create a sufficient environment for youth, education, fun, health, and living among his community and children in Uganda, arrangements of support can be made through information on his facebook page (Linked Below).
