IN RECOGNITION
WHEREAS, Bible Center Church, located on Barton Avenue in Luling, Louisiana, is a fellowship of believers who joined together to worship and serve the Lord; and,
WHEREAS, in 1962, several families in the Boutte-Luling area were desirous of having a local independent church. These families began having bible studies and prayer meetings off and on in their homes over a period of seven years; and,
WHEREAS, in March of 1969, a group of fifteen families met in the Mimosa School cafeteria and signed the charter for the birth of the Bible Center Church of Luling; and,
WHEREAS, the name Bible Center Church was selected to show that the emphasis would be on God's Word and there would not be a church denomination attached to the church; and,
WHEREAS, on April 6, 1970, the construction of the church building located on Barton Avenue in Luling, was complete and since its inception, the membership has grown; and,
WHEREAS, on Saturday, October 5, 2019, and Sunday, October 6, 2019, the Bible Center Church celebrated its 50th Anniversary.
