Dear Friends Members of Friendship Baptist Church, We greet you and welcome you to our 151 Anniversary Celebration Service. We are honored to be the co-chairs of this historic moment in the new life of our church. Our theme for this occasion is Moving Forward in the Spirit of Christian Unity. Over the past weeks, we have had witnessed our theme in action, as we have worked together with our interim pastor and fellow members. We thank you all for the role that you played in helping to make this, our first year of the second half century a success. We are especially grateful to the chairs and co-chairs who provided the leadership for this month of activities. All of our pre-anniversary programs have been informative, enlightening and inspiring. Thank you for your support and your participation. As this church continues to be our foundation, strong in faith and spirituality, we can't help reflecting on our great legacy–our great history and our great heritage. Our traditions are incomparable. Our place among churches of diverse denominations is secure. For over 150 years we have been a beacon of light in religion, education and community activism. Friendship has a charge to keep and a God to glorify. We ask and pray for His continuing blessings on each of us and on His church, as we join hands Moving Forward in the Spirit of Christian Unity . Sinerely,
&
