Two Prayer Services: One Focused On The Past, One On The Future
October 18, 2009
Two different prayer services — one with a focus one the past, and one with a focus on the future — were held Saturday in North Escambia.
At Highland Baptist Church in Molino, the faithful gathered Saturday afternoon for Mt. Calvary Tabernacle and Camp Meeting Day. Back in 1935, a group of faithful gathered on the shores of Pine Barren Creek to worship. They gathered under tents with sawdust covered floors to sing hymns, pray and listen to the Gospel preached.
The afternoon service Saturday, sponsored by the Molino Mid-County Historical Society in coordination with the Highland Baptist Historical Committee, include singing praises, reading from Psalm as well as prayer in the worship style of those old-time services at Pine Barren Creek.
Saturday evening in Century, community leaders, local pastors and church members gathered at Abundant Life Assembly of God. The focus of their prayer meeting was the future of Century and its citizens.
