Last Sunday on 13 May 2012, Emmasdale Baptist Church in Lusaka had a dedication service for the new church building. Emmasdale Baptist Church has come a long way having commenced work in the late nineties. The church first met at a school before moving to meet from a house on the church premises and then finally in the new church building. The current pastor is Isaac Makashinyi, who was previously pastor at Trinity Baptist Church in Kitwe. The preacher at the dedication service was Pastor Thomas Winn from Grace Baptist Church in Mississippi in USA. His text was from Matthew 16 where he expounded on the characteristics of the Invisible and Universal Church. He later officially opened the church building (see photo below). The photo's below capture this great and momentous event!
