L-R: Rev. John E. King; Dr. Edward O. Jackson and Rev. Rodney Dillard.

by Jessie N. Williams

The Greater Titusville Civitan Club celebrated Clergy Appreciation Week – February 19th – by honoring Rev. Rodney Dillard, Sr., St. Mark CME Church; Dr. Edward O. Jackson, Sr., Greater Antioch Baptist Church and Rev. John E.King, Trinity Baptist Church. Green Liberty Baptist Church, Rev. Ronald A. Mims, Pastor, hosted the occasion.
Each pastor was recognized and honored for exhibiting the kind of leadership  that we Civitans
love, value and expect of those honored. As we considered the attributes of each honoree, I
thought of the compassion that someone made of the levels of Christian Stewardship to a
bacon and egg breakfast. The comparison is that the chicken has contributed, but the pig is committed.
Ministerial work is an exemplary service – the thrust of which can be seen in one of the
stately phrases found in the Civitan Creed – that asks of us to “Use our hands to do the Work of the World and Reach
out in Service to others.”
As you live out a life of Christian Stewardship, please know that we appreciate instinctively the difference between a token contribution and as heartflet offering.
The Difference?
Sacrifice!
We Thank You for Making the Sacrifice!
Special Recognition was given to Reverend Ronald Mims, Pastor of Green Liberty Baptist Church where the program was held
