We hope you will join us for a socially distant worship service. We’ll sing a few hymns, pray for one another, and hear a brief lesson from the Bible. We will take extra caution to make this gathering as safe as possible for our senior saints and high-risk members who have not yet been able to gather for Sunday morning worship. The doors will be open upon arrival. Please wear a mask and leave plenty of space between the other members. If you have any questions, please contact Michael Talley at mtalley@abfboone.org.
MID-WEEK DEVOTIONAL
In addition to the Wednesday Worship Service, we are also offering words of encouragement. These will be emailed out to the church and posted on our Facebook Page. Email abfoffice@abfboone.org if you want to get on the email list.
WORSHIP
Keep worshipping with us all week long. Our Worship Team has put together our Sunday Setlist, Sunday Worship, and Songs of Encouragement for you to worship as one while separated.

Wednesday Night Student Gatherings – Starting 9/9 – 6:00-7:30 pm Student Gatherings are a great way for students to invite their friends to a warm and safe environment where they will hear the gospel each and every week.
