Susie White Retires after
28 Years of Service
I tender my resignation in anticipation of retiring. I am looking forward to spending more time with my kids and grandkids!
I have enjoyed my 28+ years of employment at Second Baptist Church, but feel the time has come for a change. I have published the Second Helping bi-weekly for all those many years, facilitated two weekly Orders of Worship beginning October of 2012 until the present time, handled membership, hospital visitation, and worked with many Leadership Team Chairpersons and Deacon Chairpersons. My favorite part was serving with three individually talented and gifted senior pastors – Charlie Johnson, Philip Wise, and Ryon Price.
It’s been an incredible journey, but every journey has to end. Thank you for allowing me the privilege of being part of this congregation of believers for so many years!
A Love Offering for Susie White
In appreciation for her 28 Years of Service to Second B, a love offering has been established. Please make your checks out to "Second Baptist Church" with “Love Offering for Susie White” in the detail. Her last day on the job will be Thursday, March 29
