His Concerns & Accomplishments
Reverend Marion B. Robinson is in his 26th year as our pastor. From 26 years ago until the present, many wonderful changes have taken place. He once told his sister to introduce him using ONE  simple sentence. I can't do that because we are very proud of his accomplishments and choose to share them. He is a role-model for  those who chose to observe. His concern for others in genuine.  I've had him pray for so many of my friends as well as for me, a cancer survivor. He has spent a lifetime being  especially concerned about our youth. He admonishes his parishioners to bring their children to Sunday School and to have them participate in groups that have been set up to enrich their children. With that being said, I continue..
