Revival Kicks off With Fish fry Held @ Home of Pastor Richard & Veta Goodwin on March 27th

A Fish Fry was held on Thursday evening to officially kick off the Ebenezer Baptist Church Revival which begins on Sunday, March 30th with Evangelist Pastor John Benedict preaching the worship message on Sunday and again on Monday night at the Revival.

Pastor Richard cooked the fish (supplied by Tommy & Helen Blair), and Pastor Richard cooked the fries, hushpuppies, and pepper poppers. Ladies in attendance brought cole slaw, and desserts. Everyone got their tummies full of really good food, and those in attendance enjoyed the fellowship. Leftovers were delivered to 3 families who had recent medical issues and were happy to enjoy the goodies from their homes. Thank you to all who attended the fish fry and brought food.

Newly Renovated Fellowship Hall at Ebenezer Baptist Church

The Fellowship Hall was recently renovated in the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Quitman, Texas. What began as installing laminate flooring to as portion of the floor, actually became almost an entire rework of the hall. The plans kind of mushroomed into redoing the paneling on all the walls, adding trim, painting cabinets and trim, installing new lights, painting the island and giving the area a complete makeover. This labor of love was directed by Pastor Richard Godwin’s stepson, Wayne Curtis who has a lot of experience and expertise in the building and contracting trade although he is no longer able to work at that due to medical issues. Almost every member of the church contributed in some way to this project. We thank Tommy Blair, Pastor Richard Goodwin, Helen Blair, Kitty Bailey, Trudy Ferguson and Wayne Curtis for their contributions in bringing this project to a completion just in time for our Big Revival March 31st thru April 2nd. The person who directed all the hard work was Wayne Curtis who was surprised during church on March 23rd with a gift of treasured fishing lures since he loves to fish. Thank you to all who participated in this wonderful project, and the Pastor’s wife Veta - that’s me! I helped too! We all love the Lord.
