Black History Month Celebration
The St. Stephen’s Baptist Church of Freeport, in recognition of Black History Month, will have a special program at 4 p.m. Feb. 27. The keynote speaker is Rev. LaTanj Neal, pastor of the St John A.M.E. church of Ponce de Leon. This year’s theme is “The History of Black Economic Power.” Creatively designed posters from the Freeport Elementary School fifth-graders will be on display.
