Condolences to the Watson family. I am originally a member of Jerusalem Bapt. Church and also attended New Vine while staying with my aunt, Viola Wyatt in Charles City. My husband attended Israel Baptist Church as a child when it was located in NE. Wash., DC.
Sorry to read of the passing of your mom, mother-in-law.
