A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO CONGRATULATE TRINITY COMMUNITY CHURCH OF EDGEFIELD ON THE OCCASION OF ITS HISTORIC ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-SIXTH ANNIVERSARY AND COMMEND THE CHURCH FOR MORE THAN A CENTURY AND A HALF OF SERVICE TO GOD AND THE COMMUNITY.
Whereas, having been founded in 1857, Trinity Community Church of Edgefield is celebrating its historic one hundred fifty-sixth anniversary in 2013; and
Whereas, on Sunday, May 19, 2013, the grateful congregation of Trinity Community Church will commemorate its one hundred fifty-sixth anniversary with two special services to celebrate God's faithfulness to the church, both spiritually and materially, throughout the years. During the first service, members of the Jackson family, all of whom grew up in the Edgefield community and attended Trinity Church, will serve as guest speakers; and
Whereas, elected government officials will attend the second service, with Pastor Tom Dimarco from Episcopal Church of the Ridge as guest speaker. Dr. Robert A. Williamson, Jr., of the Edgefield Baptist Association will rededicate Trinity Community Church to the service of God. As well, Thomasina Adams Dais, president of the Old Edgefield District African Genealogical Society, will share Trinity's history; and
Whereas, Trinity Community Church has been a beacon of light in the Edgefield area for one hundred fifty-six years, and, God willing, will continue its godly 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 Trinity Community Church of Edgefield on the occasion of its historic one hundred fifty-sixth anniversary and commend the church for more than a century and a half of service to God and the community.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Pastor Eddie Wood for Trinity Community Church.
