Jeremiah 3:15 (NIV) To Our Beloved Pastor, We the Mount Carmel Baptist Church Pastoral Anniversary Committee would like to express and thanks for your dedicated leadership for the past four years. You came to us with a vision of us being "One Church, Working Together", and you have united us under that vision as we endeavor to be the "Heart and Hands" of West Philadelphia. In a time when the importance of the black church is waning under the weight of harsh socioeconomic conditions, you have helped Mount Carmel remain steadfast in our commitment to our membership and community. We would also like to thank our First Lady Dr. Pamela Moore for sharing Pastor Moore with us. Beside every great man, is a great woman holding his hand, supporting him along the way! We love and appreciate you both and wish you many more years of faithful ministry! Warmly, Members of the Pastoral Anniversary Committee COMMITTEE MEMBERS Deaconess Stephanie Johnson - Chair Deacon Elmore Johnson - Co-Chair Deaconess Brenda Austin Deacon Calvin Austin, Sr. Vivian Barrett Vivian Brew Deacon Pamela Coles Inez Davis Kaci Griffin Stephanie Harrington Trustee Karen E.
