Pastor Marvin Minton retired Dec. 31 after 26 years as pastor of Crawford Road Baptist Church, Phenix City. The church held a retirement reception Dec. 19, and Tom O’Flinn, chairman of the deacons, presented Minton and his wife, Susan, with a plaque and a gift from the church.
Before coming to Crawford Road, Minton served churches in Chicago and his hometown of Pensacola, Florida.
During his time at Crawford Road, he led the church through a variety of acquisitions of property and construction projects. He also led the congregation to become debt-free in recent years and kept the members connected and the church strong during the pandemic difficulties that took place in 2020 and 2021.
