Latta Baptist Church is celebrating their 125th Anniversary on Sunday, October 9.
The church was formed in September of 1891, and their first pastor was Rev. R.H. Burris.
The church sanctuary, that is still in use today, was built in 1909. It replaced a wooden structure on the same site. The Educational Building was built in 1951 and another addition to the church, the Fellowship Hall building, was completed in 1986.

In 1991, the church celebrated their 100th Anniversary with Rev. Chris Bowman as the pastor.
Latta Baptist has long been known for her support of missions, missionaries, and mission projects, in order to see people come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord.
In September of 2009, Latta Baptist called Rev. Rob Pierce to serve as their pastor and he has just completed his 7th year as pastor.
Currently the church has two morning worship services, one at 8:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall that is more informal with contemporary music, and another at 11:00 a.m. in the Sanctuary that is more traditional.

Latta Baptist has age appropriate activities and Bible studies on Sunday mornings, Sunday nights, and Wednesday nights as well as at other times.
On Sunday, October 9th, Latta Baptist will have a special combined service at 10:30 a.m. in the sanctuary followed by ‘Dinner on the Grounds’ to celebrate this special anniversary.
Dr. Sonny Holmes, the former president of the South Carolina Baptist Convention and recently retired pastor of Northwoods Baptist Church in Charleston will be the guest speaker.
The church will also have a special gift for each family in attendance to commemorate this special day as they celebrate 125 years of doing
‘Whatever it Takes to See God’s Purposes Accomplished’!
You are invited to be a part of this special day and anyone who has connections to Latta Baptist are especially encouraged to attend.
