On Oct. 6, New Zion Missionary Baptist Church, Nauvoo, celebrated its centennial anniversary. Former pastor Scott Stewart was the guest speaker and music was brought by Awaken Quartet. Rita Willis read the history of the church.
Pat Musselwhite presented certificates from the Alabama Baptist Historical Commission and Walker Baptist Association. A pew from the original church building believed to be 100 years old was on display.
“I felt blessed and had a sense of appreciation for our forefathers who started the church,” said Lynda Knight, who was recognized during the service as being the longest member of the church. Roger Wilson, youth minister, served as the service’s emcee.
