Rev. Jerome Graham’s Third Anniversary Celebration


Sojourner’s Truth Staff

Rev. Cecil Jerome Graham, pastor of True Vine Missionary Baptist Church, and his congregation celebrated his third pastoral anniversary on Sunday April 23, 2017 during a service in Graham’s mentor, Rev. John E. Roberts of Indiana Avenue Missionary Baptist Church, delivered the message.

The theme of this year’s celebration was “Where he leads me I will follow,” from Psalms 25:5.

“Now in my third year of pasturing I have been truly blessed by the manifestation of God’s anointing and how True Vine as embraced the spirit of giving and outreach,” wrote Graham to his flock.
 

“The growth of the ministry has blessed me, the opportunity and career fair, going into the fourth year, the second year of food distribution of food and the launch of an STNA career development ministry has truly encouraged me to fight faithfully onward in enriching and empowering of the body of Christ. God is continually adding to the church weekly through Candidates for Baptism and Christian Experience.”

An annual Vacation Bible School, the purchase of a new van and new kitchen appliances and collaborations with community partners have also been implemented at the church during the three years of Graham’s leadership.

Sunday’s service was opened by Sis. Sharon Lee of the Pastor’s Aid Committee. After the devotion presented by the True Vine and Indiana deacons, the Voices of True Vine led the processional, greetings were offered by Bro. Thomas Lee and the first of several selections were sung by the Voices.

The message by Roberts was followed by words of gratitude by Mother Georgia Trigg, president of the Pastor’s Aid Committee and Rev. Graham made the closing remarks.

Other members of the Pastor’s Aid Committee are: Bobbie Beasley, vice president; Mother Mattie McAlister, treasurer; Nate Frazier, chaplain; Mother Vivian Smith; Denise Graham-Banks; Yvonne King; Audrey Starks; Janice Baker; Glenda Brown and Ora Bell
