The First Baptist Church of Fairfield took it to the streets on Saturday, April 19th, for an Evangelism Prayer Walk. The Walk was coordinated by Charletta Sheehy and Irene Williams. The purpose of the walk was to share God’s Salvation to the people of our city and to pray for our city and its leaders. Our church’s mission is to Exalt, Equip and Evangelize. It was also part of our upcoming Women’s Day Celebration, “Women Walking in the Light.”
We began at the church with praise and worship led by Ann Niles, Lorraine King, Shirley Fennell, Charletta Sheehy, Theresa Mack and Helen Smith. Our walk through the streets of Fairfield was led by our Pastor, Rev. Robert G. Twyman. Others participating in the walk were: Cynthia Morton, Bama Gray, Jackie Chancellor, Catherine Bush, Hubert Bush, Vera Penny, Nadine Walker, Charlotte Sneed, Brenda Smith, Joyce Lloyd, Maxine Starks, Ethel Shuford, Don Murray, Reginald Nall – Galilee Baptist Church.
As we walked we sang hymns of praise and thanksgiving. We also witnessed to and prayed with citizens along the way. We shared handouts on God’s Salvation.
Our destination was City Hall. Once we reached City Hall, songs of praise were led by Ann Niles. Pastor Twyman and Missionary Society President Charletta Sheehy prayed for the city of Fairfield and it leaders. Women’s Day Chair Cynthia Dickey Morton gave words of encouragement.
We left City Hall and continued our walk back to the church. We continued to sing, pray and witness.
