​ ANCHOR BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH CELEBRATES THEIR 10TH ANNIVERSARY


​Anchor Bible Baptist Church as a New Testament church on October 7, 2006 with 30 charter members and called Dr. John Tisdale as their pastor. The first year, the church met on Saturday nights at the Full Gospel Tabernacle. Soon thereafter, a store-front building on Park Avenue in Pharr, Texas was rented and completely remodeled. ABBC is affiliated with the Baptist Missionary Association (BMA)

In 2011, the church purchased the present property that had a block building. The building was remodeled. The first service in the “new building” was October 9, 2011. God continued to bless His church.  In 2012, we started praying for an additional building.  We dedicated the new auditorium , classrooms, offices, and parking lot on September 7,2014.

The church voted in 2015 to permit Anchor Theological Seminary and Bible Institute to use the facilities as their home. ABBC supports missionary activities through the BMA and many independent Baptist Missionaries. We look forward to God’s continued blessings as we obery the Great Commission to win the lost, scripturally baptize converts into His church, and teach them the law of Christ. The church is dedicated to preserving the historic Baptist doctrines and using only the King James Bible
​

On the day of the 10th anniversary, they surpassed their goal of 125 in attendance.. had one addition to the church.. had a fried chicken dinner for everyone after the service

Submitted by Dr. John Tisdale, President of Anchor
I received the following testimony from one of my students at Anchor Theological Seminary and Bible Institute who is taking courses from us via email. He gave me permission to share it.
"I know you will shake your head at me , but my heart was under conviction today , as you know I struggled with salvation for over 20 years. I thought I got it settled, but sir, for some reason I was still scared to death of dying and scared I would wake up in Hell, after reading Christology Lesson 12 about the Death Of Christ I got under conviction I couldn’t even do the lesson after reading psalm 22 and Isaiah 53 twice. I decided I had to settle it, I told Jesus that I am sick of going thru the routine of asking him to save me. I told him I'm sick of trusting in my fillings and that I am going to trust him 100%... that I believed he is the Son Of God and God in the Flesh... that he was beaten , so badly and they platted a crown of thorns on his dead and that he shed his blood for me... and was buried and arose again, I said lord I believe you did all that and oh, Lord I am a sinner that deserves hell and I said lord the best way I know how I accept you as my Savior and ask him to please save me from Hell. I am trusting Jesus 100% as this moment to take me to heaven , I hope you will rejoice with me. Its Finish

Brother Tisdale.
I would love for you to share this with the Seminary. You may used my name, also, I am not ashamed at all. I guess I'll have to admit that if it wasn’t for Anchor theological Seminary and Christology Lesson !2 on The Death Of Jesus I would of died and went to Hell. I'm grateful that you cared enough for me to give me a chance in life and saw the good in me and not my faults please share this with the seminary please
I am 47 years old and never really Had a good childhood but bless God I am somebody now amen." (Michael Pearson from Texas)

Dr. George Hatt, ThD, DCP
After passing the ripe young age of 70 plus (I reserve the right not to disclose my age) I realized that I needed something to stimulate and re-activate my mind so I enrolled in the Doctor of Christian Philosophy program. I want to thank the Lord for His help and strength.  I would also like to say thank you to Dr. Tisdale, President of Anchor for his kind patience and words of encouragement that kept me going.
 
DO YOU TAKE PRIDE IN BEING A PART OF ANCHOR  AND DO NOT MIND SHOWING IT?
