AL centers,  wants to remind you that all of NOBTS students should wear an NOBTS name badge to enter the buildings of JFBC (Marietta), FBCD (Duluth), Wynnbrook Baptist (Columbus) churches. Please locate your NOBTS NAME BADGE and wear the badge at all times while attending NOBTS classes in the JFBC & FBCD buildings.

JFBC has been so gracious to provide us with classroom spaces. Please help us in presenting our best to the church by not loitering in the vaulted lobby area, dressing and acting appropriately at all times, including placing all trash in the trash cans provided throughout the building when you bring food or drink into the classrooms.
