130th Anniversary Celebration

This past Lord's Day, our church was blessed with the presence of my friend and brother, Rev. Claude L. White, Pastor of the Greater Faith Church Baptist of Waukegan, IL, where the late great Dr. C.L. Fairchild served as pastor for over 20 years. Pastor White preached a marvelous sermon on Genesis 6 entitled Fulfilling God's Purpose for your ministry. His attempt at exposition was a true blessing to our church and his faithfulness to his assignment was a blessing to me.

Pastor White has proven himself to be a great friend to me as we have talked about preaching, visions and our goals and aspirations for our churches. He has an awesome opportunity on the North Shore to really grow his church to be the beacon of light in that community and to be the leading pastor in advancing the Kingdom of God.

I value our friendship and look forward to it blossoming to the point where we can assist each other in promoting the name of Jesus Christ to people who have not had the privilege of allowing the Gospel to change their lives. Please keep Pastor White and the Greater Faith Church in your prayers.
