JORDAN BYRD RECEIVES AWARD

Feb 22, 2022

First Christian Church of Palestine is delighted to announce that our pastor, the Reverend Jordan Byrd, was formally presented with the Paul Harris Fellow Award on February 15, 2022 at the Rotary Club of Palestine Satellite Meeting. Rotarian Sharon Grizzle gave $1,000 to the Rotary Foundation to recognize the many ways that Jordan Byrd has served citizens in Palestine and his leadership on Rotary Service Projects over the last several years.

The Paul Harris Fellow recognition was begun by Rotary International in 1957 to show appreciation for individuals who have made substantial contributions to the Rotary Foundation. Several notables receiving the Paul Harris Fellow Awards include Mother Teresa, President Jimmy Carter and Astronaut James Lovell.

We are very proud that our pastor was recognized for his outstanding service to our community.

Since I am new to the church it has been a nice time of fellowship with other church members. Jordan makes the class so enjoyable with his enthusiasm while answering our questions. He explains passages in terms that make it easy for us to understand. I am really learning a lot about Bible Stories! I would encourage anyone, who wants to learn more about the Bible to come & join us. You'll be glad you did!
