I thought the man who spoke was very informed, and he was succinct. The movies were so well done. The displays in the basement were thorough and thoughtfully placed. I have no words for improvement. Good job.

From start to finish the volunteers and staff of 16th St Baptist church were accommodating, more than willing to make our tour experience the best possible. The tour itself was powerful with poignant moments for our pastors and leaders. Thanks!

This is the fourth time I have experienced this introduction to 16th St., and it’s history. I have been with a different group each time, and each group tells me that it was very valuable. I especially appreciated the new video that we watched upstairs about change in the future. Very well done!!

I have done this tour with college students before, and it is still impactful. This time we brought nine students, and they were all moved by the presentations.
This time we stayed overnight so that we could attend the worship service. What an awesome God-honoring service. The pastor is a powerful speaker with a powerful message. And we had the pleasure of attending when the Birmingham Youth and Young Adult Fellowship Choir sang. Heavenly voices.
