Jasper’s Eastside marks 75 years of ministry

In a joint celebration with its homecoming, Eastside Baptist Church, Jasper, marked 75 years in ministry Oct. 26, 2014.

“A good crowd” participated in the service, said JoAnn Mann, secretary for Eastside Baptist, a Walker Baptist Association church.

The service featured a presentation by Alabama Baptist Historical Commission representative Pat Musselwhite and special music by New Ground, a Scottsboro-based southern gospel quartet. Pastor Jimmy Collins brought the morning’s message.

A fellowship meal followed the service. (Maggie Walsh)
