Selecting the theme: “Still On the Wall” with scripture from Nehemiah 6:3, Union Chapel began its month long celebration of ninety one years of existence on August 10-26, with a Youth Basketball Game, Fun Night in the Fellowship Hall, Car Show, and a Movie Night Fellowship at Cinemark Bridge Street. 

On Sunday August 18, the anniversary message was delivered by Guest Speaker Rev. Dr. John Clay, Pastor Emeritus of Saint Mark Baptist Church, Huntsville, Alabama. Pastor Clay took his scripture from Ephesians 6:10-17, with the sermon title “Strength for the Struggles” He highlighted the struggles that we all face in life, noting that “if we don’t surrender to the world and choose to walk with The Lord, He will make you strong”…
