Grace and peace!
I trust you're well and greet you in the joy of the Lord. I'm reaching out to share news with you about an upcoming evangelism and outreach event. Thanksgiving meals will be provided to the community at noon, Saturday, November 19, 2022, at the Mary Alice Shipp Senior Center located at 710 W Price Street Sylvester, GA 31791. This is our second annual event. Last year we served 173 hot meals and distributed food to 50+ senior citizens with a small budget of approximately $2500.
We'd like to serve more people this year AND win souls for Jesus. Attached are an event flyer and a postcard we will share as we distribute meals in the community. Will you partner with us in this effort by making a donation, forwarding this information, and encouraging others to make a donation? You may donate via check, money order, Zelle (TGOutreachSBBJr@gmail.com), or CashApp ($TGOutreachSBBJr).The mailing address for checks and money orders is New Willow Grove Baptist Church, c/o Deacon Willie Munford, 309 N Carter Rd Sylvester, GA 31791. Please include “Outreach” in the memo section of your check or money order, note section of CashApp or message section of Zelle.
To volunteer or get more information about the Thanksgiving Outreach event, please contact Mrs. Latecia Cheevers at (229) 206-2475 or LateciaCheevers@hotmail.com. Included below is information about the growing congregation that is coordinating the event.

This is an appropriate way to remember Stephen, Jr. because he had a heart for and reached out to the elderly, poor, homeless, and underserved communities. Due to his commitment to community service and volunteerism he was awarded a full-ride community service scholarship to Carson Newman College which is a small liberal arts Christian college in Jefferson, TN. It is noteworthy that the Biblical character Stephen is first mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles. He was one of seven deacons appointed by the Apostles to distribute food and charitable aid to poorer members of the community in the early church.
Stephen, Jr. is survived by a widow Ms. Keundra Wilson Bruce; two sons Asher Gregory Bruce and Beaux Hilton Bruce; parents Mr. Stephen (Mrs. LaKisha) Bruce, the Rev. Dr. Lyn Cheevers, and Mr. Anthony Branch; father-in-law Mr. Edward Wilson and mother-in-law Mrs. Tracey Wilson; grandparents Mr. Hilton and Pr. Mrs. Virginia Cheevers and Mrs. Mary Poindexter; four siblings; one sister-in-law; two brothers-in-law; six uncles; five aunts; four Godparents; many cousins; and several loving friends.
Stephen is sorely missed. I think of him daily- multiple times throughout each day. I look forward to seeing him again after my 100++ years here in earth.
Blessings,
Lyn
