🎄 Ebenezer Baptist Church Trains Community to Share Faith Through Christmas Caroling

Ebenezer Baptist Church in Dunlap is preparing for a season of outreach by equipping volunteers with the skills to share their personal faith stories during a Christmas caroling event. The church is hosting a free training session this December to help community members communicate their testimony in just three minutes-a practical tool for meaningful holiday conversations.

📍 Training Session: December 10

The F.A.I.T.H. Rider 3 Minute Testimony Training will take place Thursday, December 10, 2026, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Ebenezer Baptist Church, 34 Brea Rd., Dunlap, TN 37327. ✝️ Led by Scott Flynt, Chaplain of SVBA F.A.I.T.H. Riders, the session is open to anyone interested in sharing their personal testimony at ministry events or community outreach activities.

Participants don’t need to be experienced speakers or theologians. The training is designed for people with a willing heart and a personal story of faith-exactly what the church hopes to share during the holiday season. 💭 A light hamburger and hot dog supper will be provided for all attendees.

To reserve a spot, call (423) 326-6345. 📞

🎶 Caroling in the Park: December 12

Two days after the training, Ebenezer Baptist Church will host Caroling in the Park on Saturday, December 12, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Harris Park. 🎵 The event combines Christmas carols with opportunities to distribute gospel tracts and share personal testimonies with park visitors. Warm refreshments will be available throughout the evening.

For additional details about the caroling event, attendees can reach out to Scott Flynt. 🤝

💡 Why This Matters

The training-to-outreach model reflects a practical approach to community engagement: equip volunteers with confidence and tools, then create an immediate opportunity to use them. By teaching people how to distill their faith story into three minutes, the church removes a common barrier to sharing-the fear of not knowing what to say or how long to talk. ✨ The combination of training, food, and a structured event lowers the threshold for participation, making it accessible to longtime members and newcomers alike.
