Pleasant Valley Missionary Baptist Church, Bessemer, celebrated its 150th anniversary May 15.
“The celebration meant so much to our church. It took us back to remembering all the saints who came before us,” said Pastor Oscar Mims, who preached the anniversary sermon.
Debbie Campbell, a commissioner with the Alabama Baptist Historical Commission, presented a certificate in honor of the special anniversary.
Member Tommy Dotson talked about the history of the church. Special music was provided before and after lunch by Redeemed (Jeff Gray, Ashley Dixson, Janet Hold) from Birmingham. Guest Jeff Gray led congregational singing.
