August 25th Fellowship

August 25th Fellowship started at Greater Antioch MB Church - and what an amazing experience!  The message of Joy and Pain resonated with everyone in attendance, as did the music.  Yes, my Lord has bass! Look forward to visiting again soon with Pastor Tate’s congregation.

Next I went “home” to St. Peter MB Church on West Ridgeway under the leadership of Rev. James A. Washington, Jr.  Seeing Rev. James, Jr. and Sister Shuntae brought back wonderful memories of their parents, in particular Mrs. Washington the long-time postmistress in Tougaloo who took good care of me for a long time. The congregation included clients, neighbors, colleagues, former City of Jackson co-workers and one of my “moms”, Judge Tomie Green.  In the choir stand from the old Rosa Scott school was my seventh grade teacher Mr. Jones - thank you for your kind words and not embarrassing me.  Yes St. Peter, I was your guest but it felt like home!
