Friendly Arabic Church

In 1984, God moved the heart of Rev. William (Bill) Hern to plant Arabic ministries in North Carolina. Returning from the mission field in the Middle East on medical leave, Bill began working with the Home Mission of the North Carolina Southern Baptist Convention. He began a home bible study for Arabic speaking locals in the Triad area.
Two years later, the new-born congregation was hosted by a parent church (Friendly Avenue Baptist Church) in Greensboro, North Carolina until moving into the new constructed building in June 2006.

Today, Friendly Arabic Church is a Bible believing congregation composed of over 60 attendees who are associated with the Southern Baptist Convention!
Members include Christian believers from a range of Middle Eastern countries including: Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine/Israel, Sudan, Syria and Iraq.
