Church No. 4 Changes Name & Location

Wally belongs to what used to be called Church No. 4, or 4th Baptist in Chernivtsi.

In March they moved to a new building which is much nicer than the old one. They've also changed their name over the last year to Source of Life Baptist Church.

The church is located on top of a hill overlooking the edge of town. An apple orchard surrounds the church.

Apparently another church began constructing this building about a decade ago, but it turned out that the pastor was a better carpenter than a preacher.

Once they finished the building the church had not grown enough to support it so 4th Baptist was able to find a new home.

The church's previously located was off of an alley downtown in what had once been a Jewish synagogue before being turned into a meeting hall for young communists.
