ST. PETERSBURG – Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Eta Rho Chapter was honored Sunday, June 24 during the Men’s Day program at New Faith Free Methodist Church.

Four members of the chapter were selected to receive community service awards for their outstanding contributions to the city and communities in which they live: Bro. Dr. Kenyon Forte, Bro. Deacon Glenn Bailey, Bro. Mordecai Walker and Bro. Robert W. Smith, Sr., posthumous.

The speaker for the hour was also an Omega man, Bro. Henry Johnson, a college recruiter and community relations coordinator. Bro. Johnson encouraged the congregation to always be true to themselves and keep their faith in spite of trials and tribulations.

New Faith is well known for their recognition of organizations within the city that provide superior service and support to the people. Eta Rho Chapter wishes to express their sincere gratitude to Senior Pastor Rev. Curtiss L. Long and the Men’s Day committee chaired by Samuel G. Smith.
