Welcome From Brown Chapel AME Church
Sermon from Proverbs 22
Welcome 2023 Homecoming/Church Anniversary & Cemetery Association
First and
foremost, Brown Chapel Church Family welcomes everyone for another year of
celebrating our annual homecoming. This is the 66th homecoming &
after the previous one last year out on the cemetery grounds…..my goodness,
didn’t we have a fantastic time?! With
all the hugs, laughter and shared memories, my heart is still singing praises.
So, welcome back everyone, welcome back. And for those new visitors who stopped
by, we are very glad you came.
We are also
celebrating our 135th Church Anniversary. Can you imagine our
forefathers back in the late 1800s meeting, organizing, building and searching
for a pastor to lead them? The blood, sweat &, I’m sure, many tears they
shed just to forge a place where Christians could meet. As the bible says in Matthew 18:20 – For
where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of
them.
Through the
years each generation trod forth, on a steady path. Choosing carefully, each
decision guided by God’s hand. And here we are today, moving forward but
looking back, thanking all those who pointed the way.
And finally,
we are also acknowledging our Cemetery Association, for their efforts in
maintaining the grounds.
So let us
celebrate this day in prayer, in fellowship and some good eats!
