Ebenezer Missionary
Baptist Church, Pastor J.L. Jordan, Jr, held its 63rd
annual Women’s Day celebration on Sunday May 24, 2015 as
women garbed in pink and white exemplified the day’s theme
of “Well Dressed Women of Faith.”
The morning’s service
began with a devotion offered by women from a multitude of
congregations: Helen Victorian from St. James Armory; Ella
Pickett from St. Mark’s Baptist; Early Johnson from Ebenezer
and Arletha Ervin from Ebenezer.
Evangelist D. Everett was
the conductress of service and following various selections,
a procession and words of encouragement, guest speaker
Minister Doris Thomas of Solomon Temple Baptist Church
addressed the day’s theme for the congregation explaining
that the well dressed outside appearance was a mere
reflection of the faith present in one’s heart and mind.
This year’s Women’s Day
was the first since the passing of long-time First Lady
Rosie Jordan and Evang. Everett presented the congregation
with a special gift of a plaque honoring the well-loved
First Lady. Sis. Jurlean Johnson, Women’s Day chairman then
offered words of gratitude before Pastor Jordan closed the
morning’s service with remarks and a benediction. |
