Bedico Baptist Church praises its graduates
THE PONCHATOULA TIMES, JUNE 13, 1985, PAGE FO!
We, at Bedico Baptist Church are
very proud of our seniors. We were
lucky enough to have had graduates
from five different high schools. We
held a special Baccalaureate Service for
them. Guest speaker was Jimmy Hill.
Each graduate wore a cap and gown
representing their school colors, and
were presented with a Cross pen and
pencil set. A fellowship followed for the
seniors and their parents.

All Saints
parishioners
enjoy cruise
By IRIS B. BRANN
On May 19, 1985, many members of
All Saints and their guests boarded the
Welles' two large float boats and cruised
down the wild beautiful Tangipahoa
River to a secluded little lake. Charles
Brann, senior lay-reader, held morning
prayer services there, assisted by John
(Sparky) Welles Jr., Robert Palmer,
Gene LeTard, and Lenore Johnson.
Four guest guitarists provided the music
for the hymns which the joyful
worshipers sang as they cruised
between the leafy banks. The guitarists
were Poppy Populis, Grace Church,
Hammond: Charles (Cha-Cha) Palmer
Jr. from Church of the Incarnation,
Amite; Preston Landry from St.
Andrews, New Orleans; and Martha
Self from St. Margarets, Baton Rouge.
Following the services, the
congregation and their guests enjoyed
tubing on the river and visiting with each
other at the piano feast under the large
oaks on the river bank.

memorate the Annual "Family Day"

Bishop Speaks, is known nationally
and internationally as an outstanding-
preacher, scholar and pulpiter. Just re-
cently he was called to deliver an ad-
dress in Frankfort, Germany, and later
to London, England where he received
a standing ovation.

that it compels respect, having received

Seminary, Madison, New Jersey, and
the S.T.M. degree from Temple Univer-
sity, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; further

Seminary in New York City.
This outstanding spokesman has
served as instructor of practical theol-
ogy at Hood Theological Seminary and
pastored some of the most renowned
and major churches of the A.M.E. Zion
denomination, elected the seventy-six
bishop of the A.M.E. Zion Church in
192, bishop over West Africa for eight
years, a contributor to several religious
journals, wrote and published many
books; to name a few, "God in an Age
of Scarity", "The Minister and His
Task", "The Church and Black
Liberation". "Catechism for Ministers
and Lay Leaders", and now the bishop
of the eight-epispocal district of the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal Zion Church.
Bishop Speaks is above all, a Christian
brother, a lover of people, a lover of
God, a devoted servant and worker,
emphasizing the thought of "Building a
Better Tomorrow Through the Power of
the Holy Ghost."
I asker Memorial A.M.E. Zion ,nurch
feels highly honored to be able to
bring this most eminent personality or
man of God to the Ponchatoula com-
munity that we all may share in an op-
portunity of witnessing and kingdom
building. Every one is cordially invited
to take a part in this "Family Day"

dence, La. we think of him as a "home
boY," indigenous of this section and a
credit to Louisiana. Come hear our
own,
