Church of Christ celebrates a century

The Leaf-Chronicle in Tennessee reports:

According to church history records, when C.E.W. Dorris started what is now the Church of Christ at Trenton Crossing in 1915, exactly one person showed up for the first service. One hundred years later, the membership has grown dramatically and the congregation will celebrate its first 100 years on Sunday, Aug. 16.

Geoffrey Sikes is in his 28th year as Pulpit Minister at Trenton Crossing, formerly called Madison Street Church of Christ. He loves the congregation and there is no place he would rather be on any day of the week.

…

Tim Gunnells will be the guest speaker for the anniversary celebration on Aug. 16, and the community is invited. Gunnells is a former minister at Madison Street Church of Christ. Special singing will be led by Marlon Crow and a potluck lunch will follow the services.
