So they said, "Let us rise up and build." Then they
set their hands to this good work. (Nehemiah 2:18b)
Beloved,
As Senior Pastor, it is my delight to welcome you to
First Baptist Church of Cedar Grove official Web Site. We are located in
Shreveport, Louisiana which is a rapid growing city with a great
body of Christian believers. It is my prayer that you will find this
site informative, inspirational, and insightful in regard to the
mission of our Church.
For over 121 years, our Church has stood the test of
time. We may have had organizational changes but our primary mission
has not changed - to reach, impact, and influence this world with
the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the good news!
As we prepare for another historic period, I want to
thank you for placing your confidence in our leadership. I must
thank Pastor Emeritus Michael Brown and First Lady Brown for the
previous years served to help us unify this community. We are proud
to say that there is no schism, no split, nor any ill will after our
recent election.
This web site is under construction as we begin
laying the foundational work of this new administration - and please
bear with us as enhancements are made. We are sure that once all of
the changes are implemented, you will be pleased and proud of the
results. I am pleased to join in the words of Nehemiah 2:7(b), "the
good hand of my God (is) upon me."
I stand upon the legacy of those patriarchs who gave
leadership prior to our Restoration and on the shoulders of other
great leaders in our city and state. I solicit your earnest
prayers for this awesome task of leadership. We are looking for you
to visit us at your earliest convenience that you may taste from our
table fresh and aromatizing "Bread of Heaven" as you
Come home with
me!
Eulogia,
Dr. Henry L. Armington, Sr. MMA / D.Min
