Why should you attend Southwide?

You should join us because faithful preaching still matters, fellowship among pastors and ministry leaders is still needed, and encouragement for the work of God is still worth prioritizing.

In this video, Pastor Scott Hooks — this year’s moderator for the Southwide Baptist Fellowship — shares both practical and personal reasons why Southwide continues to be such a meaningful gathering year after year.

Whether you’ve attended for decades or are considering coming for the very first time, we believe these days together will strengthen, encourage, and refresh you for the ministry ahead.

Join us October 12–14 at First Baptist Church of Milford. Register via the link in our bio!
