Book

     Thus Far By Faith is an enlightening account of the history of Mount Pilgrim Baptist Church. Arthenia Milican states, "Ruby Ennis is able to enliven the chronological structure of this centennial publication by recording, analyzing, correlating, and explaining information garnered from oral and written accounts about a journey of faith. This journey began, and continues to move, with a sense of the whole spectrum of this life and the life beyond."
     Church History Chairperson Mildred Stevenson is emphatic in her love for the historical truths of Thus Far By Faith. "It gives an accurate account of the things that happened in the development of Mount Pilgrim Baptist Church. We had meager beginnings but, by faith, the Lord has blessed us to grow and develop into the church that we are today."
     With the assistance of Dorothy Davis, Barbara Morgan, Marva Spears, and the late Malvia Albert, Ennis is able to capture the spirit of the pioneer members of Mount Pilgrim Baptist Church through personal interviews and the sharing of history-making events throughout the first 100 years. The persons who helped research information for Thus Far By Faith were the late brother Tom Eames, sisters Helen Carter, Angela Copeland, Dedra Stevenson, and the late sister Myrtle Hickman.
     Thus Far By Faith is a must read for anyone interested in the history of the African American church.   -- Annette L. Yancy, Sisterhood President
