A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO CONGRATULATE PASTOR MAE BAILEY AT THE CELEBRATION OF HER TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF CONTINUOUS AND FAITHFUL SERVICE TO NEW LIFE PRAISE TEMPLE IN BISHOPVILLE.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Bishopville's New Life Praise Temple will honor Pastor Mae Bailey at the celebration of her twenty-fifth pastoral anniversary on Sunday, July 15, 2018; and
Whereas, to prepare herself for her life's work, Mae Bailey received a diploma of theology from the Church of God in Jesus Christ Bible School, and she holds a bachelor's degree in theology from the Elohim Community Bible Institute; and
Whereas, having already served faithfully in various church auxiliaries, Mae Bailey received her calling to the ministry in 1985. She ministered in the Bishopville community for three years before becoming pastor of New Life, founded by the late Flora Robinson; and
Whereas, under the leadership of Pastor Mae Bailey, the preaching of the Word of God has transformed lives, and many souls have received salvation, healing, deliverance, and encouragement; and
Whereas, Pastor Bailey's passion for children and youth led her to organize a charter school initiative. As one of the school's founders, she believes in quality education and the importance of investing in children. The Pee Dee Math, Science, and Technology Academy is designed to develop self-motivated citizens who are ready to meet the demands of a global economy; and
Whereas, on the home front, Mae Bailey is the proud wife of Elder Bailey. The Lord has blessed their union with two fine children, Evangelist Marilyn (Trevor) McDonald and Pastor E. Keith (Andrea) Bailey, who have given their parents the joy of six grandchildren, Angelica, Desireé, Brittany, Ethan, Edwin, and Evan; and
Whereas, the House of Representatives, grateful for the life testimony of consistent commitment and excellence Pastor Mae Bailey has bestowed on the people of South Carolina, takes great pleasure in wishing her well as she continues to serve the Lord in the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Pastor Mae Bailey at the celebration of her twenty-five years of continuous and faithful service to New Life Praise Temple in Bishopville.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Pastor Mae Bailey.
