First Baptist Gulf Shores opens new facility with April 4 concert

The public is invited to First Baptist Gulf Shores to rock out and worship with Dove Award-winning and Grammy-nominated contemporary Christian band, Building 429 (pictured), Saturday, April 4 at 7 p.m. The event will take place at the church’s new multi-use Christian Growth Center, which opens for worship services in March.
“God has truly blessed First Baptist Gulf Shores in providing the means through our people to build a new Christian Growth Center, which is where our children and pre-school ministry, along with our contemporary worship service, will reside,” said John Yates, student and contemporary campus pastor. “We now have an opportunity to use this state-of-the-art new facility to bring in great Christian artists like Building 429 to bless the community around us.”
Inspired by the Biblical passage from Ephesians 4:29, Building 429 seeks to spread a message of hope through hits like “Where I Belong,” “We Won’t Be Shaken” and “Fear No More.” Tickets are $20 for general admission and $100 for the ultra-limited VIP experience, featuring a meal with the band, a meet-and-great autograph session and premium up-front seating. The doors open at 6 p.m. for general admission. For more event information and to purchase tickets, visit FBCGulf.com/B429.
