Remember, Celebrate, and Act
Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the death of civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee in 1968.

The teachings of this remarkable man have made a lasting impact on societies throughout the entire world. Dr. King’s teachings and beliefs of equality for all people can be achieved through non-violence exemplify the teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. With this year’s theme in mind, Remember, Celebrate, and Act, GSBC joins in the celebration with the rest of the world, in remembering the life of such a great man.

We ask the community of FAITH to take a moment in silent prayer on January 21st to thank God for Dr. King and others like him who have gave up their lives unselfishly to fight for equality for all mankind. We furthermore ask that as African-Americans we teach our children about our history so that they will REMEMBER the struggle, CELEBRATE the victories God has blessed us with and ACT on the injustices that still exist not only in this country but with mankind throughout the world… for we are all God’s children.

Fifth Sunday Outreach Program

Pastor Ridout has ordained each fifth Sunday of the year as Outreach Sunday. Our goal as a church is to reach the lost souls for Christ and encourage those who are saved to be actively involved in a local church. Therefore, we encourage each member to invite/bring some un-churched individual(s) each Sunday morning; but especially the fifth Sunday.

Rev. Eddie Hughes has been a member of GSBC for approximately two years. When he joined GSBC he introduce us to several outreach ministries that he was involved in. He presently ministers to the Firm Foundation on Tuesday and the Lighthouse Ministries on Thursday nights. These ministries are transitional facilities for men only.

In December 2007, the Men Ministry of GSBC under the leadership of Deacon Charles Harris established An Adopt a Man Ministry. The man we adopted in December is Mr. Paul Cooper. Paul came out of the Lighthouse Ministry and is now living in a two bedroom home with a roommate. The Men Ministry has agreed to assist with his rent and utilities for a reasonable period of time.

On Sunday March 30, 2008 history was made at GSBC as part of the Fifth Sunday Outreach Program. For the first time, the men of Greater Second Baptist took to the choir stand and rendered the music for the 8:00 am and 10:45 am services.
 
Special Thanks to the music department for all it's help, support and direction.
