   04/24/19  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 11)

TO CONGRATULATE STATE LINE BAPTIST CHURCH OF GAFFNEY ON THE OCCASION OF ITS HISTORIC TWO HUNDRED TWENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY AND TO COMMEND THE CHURCH FOR TWO AND A QUARTER CENTURIES OF SERVICE TO GOD AND THE COMMUNITY.

Whereas, founded in 1794, State Line Baptist Church of Gaffney is celebrating its two hundred twenty-fifth anniversary of Gospel ministry in 2019; and

Whereas, State Line Baptist, led by the Reverend Kristopher Showen as pastor, has sought to carry out the Great Commission with faithfulness and dedication; and

Whereas, standing on the faith and strength of its early pastors and members, State Line's present congregation "press[es] toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 3:14), continuing to preach and teach the Word of God; and

Whereas, to mark its two hundred twenty-fifth anniversary, State Line Baptist will hold a special day of celebration on Sunday, May 5, 2019; and

Whereas, State Line Baptist Church has been a beacon of light and a community worship center in Gaffney for two hundred twenty-five years, and, God willing, will continue its heritage for many more years of worship and service. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate State Line Baptist Church of Gaffney on the occasion of its historic two hundred twenty-fifth anniversary and commend the church for two and a quarter centuries of service to God and the community.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to State Line Baptist Church.
