Thank you to our community for showing up in a big way to support First Antioch Baptist Church and for celebrating Valdosta’s rich history and architectural legacy. The presentation by Alfred Willis was incredibly educational and highlighted the importance of preserving these historic spaces for future generations.
Historic Valdosta, with support from the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation and a Walmart Spark Grant, was honored to contribute $2,500 toward the restoration of the church’s vandalized historic stained-glass windows.
If you would like to help restore these beautiful windows and continue celebrating Valdosta’s history and architecture, please visit ValdostaHeritageFoundation.org.— with The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation and First Antioch Baptist Church LLC.
