Whereas, the members of the Senate are pleased to learn that King’s Grove Baptist Church in Six Mile, South Carolina (Pickens County) is celebrating its One Hundredth Anniversary on Sunday, September 26, 2010; and
Whereas, Reverend Chris Graybegan his service as pastor at King’s Grove Baptist Church in October 2003; and

Whereas, the current sanctuary was completed in 2001. The church today is still very strong in international and home mission endeavors and serves the local community in food pantries, community carnivals and events, and benevolence; and
Whereas, King’s Grove belongs to the Southern Baptist Convention and holds true to traditional values of faith, family, and freedom; and
Whereas, the church actively supports their Women on Mission, Brotherhood, and Kid for Truth ministries, and is actively involved in events and mission endeavors in the surrounding towns of Clemson, Central, and Six Mile; and
Whereas, King’s Grove Baptist Church has been a beacon of light and a community worship center for one hundred years, and God willing, will continue its godly heritage in many more years of worship and service. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the Senate, by this resolution, recognize and honor King’s Grove Baptist Church in Six Mile, South Carolina on the occasion of its One Hundredth Anniversary, and wish its faithful congregation and pastor many more years of service to God and their church.
