Jana Powell Hendricks sent this photo of a 1968 Starlette Choir trophy she received as a child in the choir.  She is the daughter of Bobby and Jenell Powell who were very active members of the church.  She married Darren Hendricks, son of the Rev. and Mrs. Sherrell Hendricks.  He served as pastor here 1967-70.  Darren has kept his Starlette Choir trophy as well.

Rev J. W. Fields organized our church in 1873. 

Vinnie Perry found this, her mother Anna Belle Bennett's Sunday School promotion from the Primary Department to the Junior Department on September 24, 1933. What a rich heritage of faith we share here!
