Easter Sunday brought an unexpected blessing for Pastor Ken Chambers, Sr. and his family.
For several months, Pastor Chambers of West Side Missionary Baptist Church has prepared himself to undergo surgery for a kidney transplant. On Sunday, April 17 at the Oakland LDS Temple, Elder Jay Pimentel and Elder David Longhurst led a joint prayer service with West Side Baptist Church, anointing Pastor Chambers along with his kidney donor and daughter Candase and praying for a safe surgery and healthy recovery for both of them.
Three generations of the Chambers family joined in the prayer service. Following that, Dr. Brittany Chambers of West Side Baptist Church spoke at the LDS Church Easter evening service. The evening concluded with a play by the LDS Church honoring the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
