Evelyn’s Story
I began attending a Baptist church in the early 60’s in Russellville. I lived In a foster home. I was a teenager and while attending I gave my life to Jesus and was baptized.
After I got my driver’s license, I moved back to TN for a couple of years. Then I moved back to AL and lived in Phil Campbell. I worked at a pant’s factory and met L.T. Kelley. We married in 1969. Then my children started arriving – Jackie in 1971, Jon in 1973, and Trisha in 1975.
In 1975. we moved to the house in this area ‘house in the hollow’. I started looking for a church to attend and visited several. Bro. Benny Cosper visited me and invited me to visit here. I felt loved and welcomed and loved it from the beginning. I joined here and have been here ever since. I consider this my family and love serving here.
