Community Thanksgiving Service



Sunday - November 22: The annual Community Thanksgiving Service was held Sunday evening by the Wellsville Area Ministerial Assoc. This year's service was hosted by the First Baptist Church located on Center Street. It is an annual service held every year in one of the Wellsville area churches. It is always open to all area pastors and members of their congregations.

First Baptist Pastor Roosevelt Thompson welcomed all in attendance and issued the Call to Worship. Invocation was offered by FB Deacon Terry McCuen and Mt. Sinai FBH Pastor Darlene Zanders delivered the Thanksgiving Message. Musical selections were lead by the FB Mass Choir.

Church of the Nazarene Pastor Dirk Hall recognized the participants in this past summer's WAMA Paint-the-Town project. As Chairman of this year's house painting efforts he thanked all churches that participated and a special thanks to the Amato Foundation.

Riverside Presbyterian Pastor, Rev. Bill Betteridge installed the 2010 officers of the WAMA that were present, as pictured above. From the left is Rev. Betteridge, Pastor Thompson - V.P., Pastor Zanders - Secretary and Deacon McCuen - Treasurer.
