Whereas, the Sutton Branch Baptist Church will celebrate its 137th Anniversary on May 19, 2002 at 2:00 p.m. with a service of rededication, dedication, and praise; and

Whereas, the Sutton Branch Baptist Church was founded in the 1870's and named for a small stream near the church located in the southwest corner of Kershaw County at Lugoff; and

Whereas, for well over a century the Sutton Branch Baptist Church has pursued a ministry dedicated to excellence in preaching Biblical truth and its application; and

Whereas, the church has enjoyed the leadership of many excellent pastors who have held the flock together through many significant events in the church's history, including World War I and the Great Depression, and is currently being led into the future by Reverend Willie J. Duncan; and

Whereas, by cherishing the past, serving the present, and fearlessly facing the future, the church promotes its mission and serves its community through its Beautification Committee, Burial Committee, Food Committee, Jubilee Choir, Musical Choir, Program Committee, Publicity Committee, Recreational Committee, Ushers, and Women's Missionary Society; and

Whereas, the Sutton Branch Baptist Church should be congratulated for its long and valued service to its members and the people of the community. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
