My Sister the Reverend Cynthia Jackson Swann Preached this message for Lenten Service March 22, 2017 at our home church the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church in Washington, D. C. She is a powerful woman of God whom I led to Christ and preached her ordination service. The worship leader was my cousin Karen Sidney Drumgold and introducing my sister was my cousin Ora Marie Sidney Drew. I played the piano as Cynthia sang “I Know I’ve Been Changed”
We had a very powerful worship service today. It felt as though any minute we were going to be raptured!

Being a pastor presents many challenges, whether you are new to the world of ministry or a veteran of many years. Rev. Walter A. Jackson III knows this better than anyone.
