According to early church minutes in the archives, Emmanuel began as “...the first Southern Baptist church of Alexandria-Pineville, organized on Tuesday, September 6, 1881 with twelve charter ” On March 30, 1893, the 56 member body held special services at the Alexandria courthouse and voted to acquire property in Alexandria, enlarge the work of the denomination in Alexandria and Pineville, and change its name to Emmanuel, meaning “God with us.” From those humble beginnings, Emmanuel has rejoiced in a proud heritage of Baptist tradition.
As we did in 1881, we continue to seek God’s direction. We are reaching people for Jesus. We are making a difference in the future of our community. With the renovation of downtown and greater accessibility through I-49, a renewed spirit fills the people. A committed congregation and quality ministerial staff look expectantly into the future toward worship, fellowship, ministry and growth in the heart of central Louisiana.
