God’s Pleasant Community Church 27th Anniversary held

Pastor Robert Briggs, Jr., along with Minister Martha Kimber, co-Pastor and the congregation of God’s Pleasant Community Church, 1806 W. Center Street, celebrated their 27th Church Anniversary on Friday, January 10, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. and concluded Sunday, January 12, 2014 at 3:30 p.m. “We’ve Come This Far by Faith” was the anniversary theme. Pastor Gregory Lewis of Pastors United was the keynote speaker. Preaching from the Book of Hebrews 11:1 (Now faith is the evidence of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen), Pastor Lewis said: “The measure of our faith depends on how much we trust God who is always there no matter how inconsequential a situation we’re faced with may appear to us.” He went on to say, “God is always there for us and we need to be sure we follow Him closely.” Pictured at right with Pastor Briggs, Rev.
