Pleasant Grove Baptist Church

🖤 Reflect. Remember. Reclaim. 🖤

A powerful and meaningful moment at the 1908 Event at Bunn Auditorium at St. John’s Hospital, honoring the life and legacy of William Dunnegan.

The eulogy was delivered by Dr. William DeShone Rosser, Pastor of Pleasant Grove Baptist Church, commemorating a remarkable life and ensuring that his story, contributions, and legacy continue to be remembered.

📸 This special photo captures the 3rd and 4th generations of the Dunnegan family, joined by Dr. Rosser and NAACP President Randolph Austin—a beautiful representation of generations coming together to Reflect, Remember & Reclaim history and honor a lasting legacy.

We remember. We honor. We reclaim our story. ✊🏾🖤

🌸👟 WE WALKED TOGETHER! 👟🌸 Faith In Motion👏🏽🙏🏽

Our FIRST Women’s Walk was filled with fellowship, encouragement, movement, and most importantly, PRAYER! 🙏🏾✨

We walked together.
We prayed together.
We encouraged one another.
We laughed together.
And we reminded each other that there is strength in sisterhood! 💪🏾💗

Every step was a reminder that when women come together in faith and unity, POWERFUL things happen! 🌸🔥

Thank you to every woman who showed up, laced up, and walked with us. Also thank you to our pastor, Dr. William DeShone Rosser for joining us on our walk.
