Reverend Dr Horace Russell a Great Jamaican
This evening, the Jamaica Baptist Union (JBU) hosts a worship service at Calabar to mark the 50th anniversary of the ordination of the Reverend Dr Horace Russell to the Christian ministry.
This significant milestone will be held in the context of a very important week because starting tomorrow, the JBU will be hosting its 159th assembly.

It is also symbolic that it is being held at the historic Calabar, a place where Russell went to high school, theological college and a place where he was ordained and became chaplain. It was a place where he baptised boys, including Derrick Kellier, MP.
Horace Russell is a great Jamaican and deserves to be honoured as such.

I wish to extend my belated congratulations to Dr. Russell. I had the privileged of being one of his students at Calabar High in the ’60’s.
